Here and Now, 2020, by Marion-Lea Jamieson, oil painting on canvas, 36″ w x 48″ h.
Description
This large oil painting on canvas, called Here and Now, is part of a series of works called Time Lines that was done from 2019-2021. The images for this piece was inspired by stylized female figures from European Neolithic art and culture, thousands of years ago.
Some of the works in this series, such as Here and Now, were a visual exploration of images of women in pre-history. In my May 2020 blog. I compare the role of women in Neolithic and contemporary eras especially with regard to religion.
Works like Here and Now are also experiments with form; using techniques that draw attention to the process and materials used in creating them and are not part of the realist tradition. I seek to negotiate a middle path between aesthetic appeal and sterile abstraction; between the grip of the past and newness for its own sake. So while my current work has a conceptual motivation, I also want to communicate the joy of colours, lines and forms depicted in oil paint – to communicate at a visceral rather than an intellectual level.
No frame is needed for Here and Now & it is ready to hang.
