    Description

    “My Life had stood—a Loaded Gun—,” named after and inspired by Emily Dickinson’s poem of the same name. The surface meaning is about a personified gun, but delve a little deeper into the text and Dickinson’s views on women and poetry are, perhaps, revealed: a woman and her words are not only powerful, but in a man’s world will stand the test of time. Here Kerry’s model holds outstretched arms - usually understood as being an expression of the power of God. The bold red and contrasting acqua and teal gives a fresh vibrancy against the dark background. A "popped" and bright interpretation of a still of a You Tube video.
    Kerry has used a contemporary approach using techniques such as expressionism and pop art to capture her model in contrasting colours to give a sense of passion and energy.
    Stretched and ready to hang!

  • About this artist

    Concept

    I’m interested in strong beautiful resilient women. These strong beautiful resilient women can be seen in my current body of work - standing in, emerging from, or swimming through, water. For me the most amazing thing about being underwater is that the rest of the world disappears for a while. There are no distractions or stress - just quietness.
    The light is filtered and flickering, and beautiful reflections are created. The whole scene is blanketed in this cool, flowing, bubbly sensation. My models hair and clothing move with the water while they are suspended in the water - floating in a nurturing, freeing, and healing space. I like to give my viewers a sense of a magical but uplifted world.
    On my personal journey this is a place where I want to be.
