Garden of Eden

$156

This artwork challenges the viewer to interpret the meaning and symbolism of the elements and their relationships.

This piece is quite unique because it shows the evolution of my artistic style. The colours are not super-accurately applied and they overlap the black outlines in many places. There’s also a dark grey texture applied over the whole artwork.

You see flying geta footwear, a school of fish, a couple of prawns, a teapot and a pair of spectacles. There are also tentacles, pills/capsules, the top half of a crustacean, a piston, a spatula, a jellyfish. A pair of lungs, kidneys and a brain (the brain being an early style of one). For the first time, the heart is depicted having four valves at the top, and there is a ventricle/atrium compartment present. The heart is supporting the security camera. There’s also a weird alien type of being with a single eye.

This was one of my first attempts to group all of these objects together into a single drawing. The objects presented here are not as “connected” as later drawings. But this truly is the beginning of something new for me. There is only one like it.
