Visit to the sea life centre, after inspiring visit to Manchester art Gallery
When on a return visit toThe Manchester Art Gallery I was immediately drawn to the work by Susan Hillier (1940) 'Rough Sea' Susan Hillier works with a collection of postcards, dating back to the early Victorian era. Each postcard dissipates an image of crashing waves, high tides and rough seas. There is a true surreal element to this piece, which i believe is a deliberate reaction, in
which the artists wanted to achieve. The use of bold vivid colours purples,reds and greens only highlights the contrast between this and reality making the overall image appear dreamlike and imaginative. I decided that upon my visit to the Sea life centre the exhibit of jellyfish were able to be seen better under different light settings therefore my work has now taken a\ new direction focusing on light.
