The heron and the boy I, 2024
Experimental screen print on silk
Procion dye formula
132 x 155cm I 52 x 61inch
This piece was created as one large 3 meter screen print that was inspired by the balance of the androgynous energy. Looking at how the female and the masculine counterparts are both whole and work together harmoniously whilst at the same time being one and different.
Cutting this work into two was to make the separation between the two parts to see them as individuals in terms of their language, form and what they emanate. Whilst at the same time visually seeing how they are also similar and compliment one another through the interweaving forms, colours and the central cut where the lines match and connect.
This piece is an ode to the masculine counterpart to see him in his full form whilst next to his feminine counterpart in complimentary.
