The Dream c.2002
Stoneware, leather, wood, wool, acrylic paint
25cm x 30cm x 5cm
2026
.
I exhibited this small sculpture @_kudos.studio_ in Castlemaine earlier this year in a very lovely exhibition called True Winter.
.
This work took many years to finally arrive IRL. As the title reads it was a dream from 2002 when I was at Uni. The joined female appendages were so vivid and still are etched into my brain.
So here she is supported by a crutch, a support which then allows the legs to be free.
.
This work still sits in Castlemaine @_kudos.studio_ if you would like to see it, they are located at the @themillcastlemaine

As the movie The Odyssey has come out (which I haven’t seen yet - but I will!) with its recent release it reminded me of this work I made, which was a direct reference to Homers Odyssey back in building 86.
