About The Artwork

'Greer' Guardian Angel Exploring the concept of ‘angel’ has become an underlying theme in this part of my work. In contemplation of the exalted familiarity of the angelic figure throughout the history of art, the foundation of this work examines a deeper psychological perspective of the notion of an angel.   The initial goal was to create something that could be understood regardless of culture, background, religion or creed, to investigate what the idea of an angel represents to all people. As a universal symbol, it is an important and powerful stimulus to our psyche, releasing an abundance of positive energy.   Part of an ongoing series of work, 'Greer' is a character exploring tensions held within the concepts of 'angel'. Replacing primary limbs with wings significantly changes the ideology of this mythical symbol. The notion of existing as an angel becomes somewhat of an irreversible, immortal burden. The work hosts an athletic physique, realistically required for a bird-like character of this proportion. This androgynous, winged being explores the paradox between power and beauty, solidity and weightlessness, creating an ambivalent narrative to the form.   Displaying a lack of features, the character emphasises the mysterious, beautiful presence that quietly dominates the space around it. Faceless yet arresting in its eloquent stillness, its body language commands attention and engages the imagination.   The name 'Greer' comes from the Celtic/Gaelic meaning for 'Watchful' or 'Guardian' This is available as a Limited Edition of 5 in Cold Cast Bronze (bronze resin). Now Sold Out. Please enquire about edition in Foundry Bronze. Please allow approximately 24 weeks for casting into Foundry Bronze. Worldwide shipping available. Installation can be discussed also.
