Flight III

It is that state of not being imprisoned and enslaved by thought, society, borders and all that is conformational that inspired this work. It is a call to arms for all and women in particular.

The artist creates traditional forms of beauty that are within the boundaries of so called ”acceptance“  but expresses his yearning to break free from the very frame of the work itself, as depicted by the Hummingbird , on a discovery beyond the boundary.

The bird represents resilience, and to the artist this translates into the ability to keep going emotionally, physically and above all spiritually. It seems to emphasise the ability to rise above troubles and hardships with ease and joy.

The woman, stands stripped off all adornments and in her natural beauty as if in defiance to being judged by others and bonded by the rules set for her. In a manner of speaking she is in “flight”.
