About The Artwork
Rappard made this drawing while thinking about the Cloud on the internet as a kind of heaven, as it is presented in an episode of the Black Mirror series, where a person uploads his consicousness. Meanwhile she was reading Sleeping Giant by writer Kazuo Ishiguro, a fairy-tale like book in which at the end an old man is taken across a river by a ferry, suggesting he dies. A beautiful and classic image that forms the basis for this refined pencil drawing. The Cloud is an Island that in it's abstraction vaguely reminds of the lyric nature paintings of the Romantic period. The paper was first treated with a drawing ink that bears a subtle pearlescent shine in it. A grid of repeating straight horizontal lines reminds of a computer grid. This place of passage appears to be soft and ephemere.
