About The Artwork

This sculpture was inspired by the linocut of the same name - Famous Ghost Ships. This compared the Mar Celeste to the 1986 Space Shuttle Challenger, which blew up on take off. We have a media swarm of 'disaster' and mourning for the crew. Yet it turned out that almost all the crew of Challenger are alive and well. I use the warhorse because of its link to the ancient world, particularly by the Greeks. The old world fell to the new, brought about by Christianity - now despised, yet never conquered. The sculpture has not joined properly underneath, can be viewed on photos, this however has not made it prone to breaking.

Jonathan's art commonly employs multi layered imagery within the composition. The artist uses text, often drawn onto and defacing the depicted image. Imaginative play is a significant component of the work, he was influenced by Picasso's technique of "unlearning", emulating childlike drawings. The theme is typically characterized by this sense of unlearning and rejecting the coercion and conformity within popular culture.
