three new works which were created fo the 'Off the Wall' Cf37art.net group exhibition at the Muni art Centre, Pontypridd South Wales
These new works are a revisit to older ink drawings of mine.
These ink drawings…I don’t quite know where they came from…but for a few months I was compelled to draw them…I see them as little pets, that manifested themselves from somewhere within my being…a psychological reality rather than a real one ,but never the less just as real to me, as once they are created they kind of ‘ live’ ! The little dog ink drawing ( see older posts) became inspiration for a sculptural object that I made.. This object has become quite a pet of mine.. He sits near me at home and has become quite a part of the family.. . And a friend I couldn’t part with! As my work has become more 3 Dimensional now rather than 2 Dimensional, these little pets I imagine will start to manifest themselves more and more in my artwork. I’ve lost so many loved pets and I feel these little beings come to my imagination in a playful way after these pets have been lost to me. Little half domesticated wild things that struggle to be human while still unable to escape their own little animal world.
