Life Ark
Mixed media
17 x 26 x 9 cm
I could have chosen any of the works by this artist featured in the Gallery, but I’m particularly drawn to the feeling of precarious balance Life Ark evokes.
I love the colours – the cool blues and greens – and the simple shapes; the decorations on the boat have echoes of something ancient and mystical. The title also seems particularly relevant to current environment concerns. Above all, the sculpture (and its title) is thought-provoking – and that’s always a good thing.
