“In your eye” by Hardy Blechman
Embroidery and Acrylic on US Army Marpat (Marine Pattern) Rucksack Recycled to Pyramid / 46 x 36 x 33cm.The exhibition features the work of those artists, writers and musicians who acknowledge the need to reach a heightened or ‘altered state’ in order to create their work. We are concerned with the mystery of the creative act. Not the inexplicable ’spark’, aka inspiration, but the fire; the non-doing before the doing, the summoning up of elemental spirits from within, or without, during the preparation of some visual or musical work, some theory or idea. This welling-up or ‘possession’, this ‘fever in the heart of man’, this spirit, this spell, might sometimes be referred to as Voodoo.
