my thoughts on this artist and the post below were both immediately 'oh my god!' wow.... I love this mix of fairytale and contemporary experience.... Fairytales, when I was a kid, always had an odd mix of fantasy and fear, sadness and excitement... there's always the potential of terrible cruelty in those old stories which felt very odd as a kid (nowadays, kids' stories, tv shows etc are diluted beyond belief....) and these images evoke that perfectly. wow. really amazing.
ReplyDeletealso you have the joy of being tagged!
I completely agree with how kids literature is so diluted these days because I actually think children are drawn to the darkness that can exist in fairy tales .
