About The Artwork

From the series Penelope's Wake: Arise. These works were stimulated by the prose of Margaret Atwood in The Penelopiad. In this telling, Atwood takes the perspective of Penelope, wife of Odysseus whilst he is away on his Odessey. The lights are the threads of hope and understanding that she weaves through the night and unravels every morning as she contepmplates his possible return or death, her marriage or her widowhood and her future with or without him. ‘Penelope’s Wake’ came to light whilst considering M.Atwood’s book The Penelopiad, and E.Bishop’s poem Insomnia. It continues my interest in revealing the dark elusive dichotomies of the Hero myths that build the ‘enlightenment’ of our culture. Sleepless nights. Lying awake in pins and needles. Tying and untying the knot. In threads. Longing… for He who may never return. Dawn finally embraces the horizon. Me: waiting impatient and cold. Arms wrapped tight against the dead of night. R.Wells The images are printed in 2 sizes, this is the MEDIUM size with 10 in the edition. The images are printed directly on glass using the latest in UV digital printing by Glastrix. Glass gives are very dark rich black and the option of a frameless look (frame can still be added by you if you choose). Glass is however reflective and therefore, like frames with glass, reflects when placed opposite a strong light source, such as a window. The glass prints come with professional mounting brackets it is its ready to hang If you would prefer to a paper print, the images can be printed on paper, using Kodak Metallic paper. Please contact me about this directly. The price and size would be the same, but it would be sent by tube instead of box. Stamp is embossed on back of print, numbered and hand signed. Comes with a certificate of authenticity. This image is from a group series called Penelope's Wake. The series looks very good when multiple prints are hung together so take a look at the rest of the images.

I am concerned with the interpenetration of symbol, myth and language and how they spiral to reveal the contradictions between our conscious and subconscious being. The universal and the intimate; fear and desire, creation vs destruction; presence and absence; our exterior reality in contrast to our internal world. I explore these contradictions through a formal and conceptual interplay of materials, texts and images. in order to draw out of them the stark realities of our culture as well as the dark elusive dichotomies that permeate beyond boundaries towards shared existential concerns.
