HUMAN SKULL - 07 - Alive and kicking
At the centre of this piece is the need to convey the important message that although we often think in ‘human centric’ terms, the world our planet, and all living things in it are connected together, talking in various languages and sharing the same space. As human beings we could learn from other living systems for the period of our short lives, embracing every vital moment of every day.
from the series of works titled ‘Design by Nature’ and featured in the ‘Eye of the Beholder’ Exhibition 2024.
The seven lessons we could learn from the natural world
This work is taken from the series of seven artworks that take the natural ‘analogue’ detail of essential icons of the natural world and are highlighted and contrasted against underlying contemporary digital patterns, created by si homfray especially for this range, representative of our very modern digital lives.
The seven works:
1. Tireless and focussed
2. Resilient and rubbery
3. Resourceful and ingenious
4. Adaptable and flexible
5. Patient and stress free
6. Connected and communicating
7. Alive and kicking
'Eye of the Beholder is an artistic examination of the extraordinary fine detail and elegance that exists in the natural world contrasted with the finest contemporary digital patterns.'
