Artwork Description

Shard Reflect - Pater and Pail Cast to the Ohter side?

40.0 x 40.0 cm

A passing encounter with a scene on the South Bank of the Thames, London, generated a story, of biblical origin. Rosie is not very comfortable in the city and makes up stories, or narratives from what she encounters. The massive phallus structure of London’s tallest building reflected in the window of a bar. Two men engrossed in conversation at the door, of the oyster bar, a masculine sky-line, the money of the city, like Peter and John, contemplating crossing / casting to the other side - not lake Galilee but a commercial centre. Anonymously encountered, Artist as spectator, of a time and place that led to a connection with a bible story; reflection of a different place and time.
