This is the sketch of the large scale painting Inflated bubbles. It is drawn on graph paper, as the artworks are inspired from thermal maps. The graph paper refers to the map aesthetic. I use highlighters and vivid colour pencils to depict the climatic urgency. Catastrophe is never fully visible at close range. We know the universe wholly through our immediate physical and emotional sensations, not so much by our intellect. Even what we see is questionable. The things that affect us most are either too close or too far away, too big or too small. It is all a blur. The truth is that by the time disaster hits, it’s too late. Artist Eleni Phyla’s immersive show “It’s Getting Hot in Here” conjures the mounting crisis in our illusory, sensate relationship with the natural environment. Large-scale canvases inspired by geothermal maps evoke terrestrial forms in vivid haptic colors. Heating Islands (2020) mimics a scientific visualization of the extreme disparities in temperatures manifested by the proliferating conditions of climatic change; its livid hot spots, gradating from yellow and pink to dark red, float in a sea of cool to deep blues. The amoebic shapes nearly metamorphose before your eyes in a dynamic interplay that reflects the vital symbiosis that fuels the cosmos. - Cathryn Drake The artwork is shipped unframed. Authenticity certificate included. It belongs in the series of artworks of my solo show 'It's getting hot in here', 2020, a show about the climatic crisis.
