dingos dogs and thylacines transcending the transience of happiness.

1st manifestation

Dingos and dogs have been companions of humans for thousands of years. The thylacine has become an icon of Tasmania, maybe still there; the irony escapes no one. Dogs and the like sit well as metaphors for the human condition/emotions. The emotion of happiness can be momentary, passes (like the existence of a species?), transient, elusive, longed for.
In the fantasy world of ‘art’ things can happen outside the realm of stark reality, can even be anti-reality.

This project has been re-emerging over a number of years as an ongoing thematic sculptural morph. The original body of work was these six copper plate etchings "Dingos Dogs and Thylacines Transcending the Transience of Happiness. Nos IX -XIV" printed over a mono serigraph.
