Artist’s Statement
“Faith or Frippery”
(Oil on canvas on board 120 x 90 cm 2013)
Faith takes many forms and manifests itself differently in a diversity of cultures. But is belief a spiritual experience or has it been hijacked by an adherence to convention.
To an outsider, faith can be seen as less spiritual and more concerned with the rules, rituals and adornments represented by the falling millinery being the habiliment of status.
