Bottled Up, Acrylic, 4.5 ft x 5 ft.
Bottled Up
ARTPRIZE ENTRY, 2011, Hopcat
Acrylic on canvas, 4.5 ft. H x 5 W ft. wrapped sides, unframed, Original Not Available
More abstract and exploratory, my main motivation in this creation was to deal with my inner turmoil, a result from the death of my infant daughter in 2005.
Life, in all its fullness, is good and beautiful. Although things can be bottled up, we can persevere!
This painting taps into the human condition; frailties, fears and joys. Varied, colorful, glass bottles and vases fill the canvas entirely. One bottle conveys the human form, another suggests a heart. Upon further inspection, the viewer sees a multitude of images within the reflections and nuances of the bottles. Or, perhaps, the viewer sees the images first, and the bottles secondary. Images depict happiness, dreams, grief, and community. The vessels represent our fragile bodies. The internal images give us a peek into the soul. Bottled Up is meant to encourage contemplation.
Original not for sale.
