Artist Statement
This work is part of a collaborative series that explores how humans interact with the natural world. The sculpture, a rabbit, is made by moulding leftover oil paint from previous work.
By recycling a traditionally two-dimensional material and transforming it into a three-dimensional material, the artists – both painters – connect with and extend their painting practice into their sculptural work and vice versa.
