A.Sanctum - Sacred in Place
This is a new series of acrylic paintings on canvas using the infrastructure of animal carcases to define and support the landscape. The imagery is quite graphic, yet there is a bold beauty to nature's recovery of it's once living flesh. Nature transitions the harsh reality of death and pulls a forensic covering over the remains. As I work at pulling the prairie covering back, the imagery is sometimes raw, but each piece conveys a sardonic beauty that transends traditional responses to the landscape.
A solo showing of these works entitled 'SANCTUM' will be held at the the rouge gallery in Saskatoon, May 29 to June 12, 2010. Check my links for their website.
