FLOW
Commissioned by the Sticky Fingers Arts Centre in Newry, Flow is a new ceiling sculpture by international artist Brendan Jamison. Embracing the uplifting joy of vibrant colour, suspended foam segments appear to float across the ceiling, creating a rhythm to enchant visitors as they wander through the space. Similar to a honey-comb effect, the artwork appears organic, with some visitors comparing it to the richness of colour and texture in a coral reef. Others may see a rainbow of cloud formations, a glowing nebula in outer space or a series of technicolour waves rippling across the roof. Part of the beauty of this sculpture is how it allows people to create their own narrative around it, with the visual stimulus conjuring up lots of different ideas and possibilities of what it could be.
Jamison states that he “hopes the visual feast will ignite the imagination of everyone entering the building. It is important to convey a sense of the magic of the arts centre. It is a unique place for children to enjoy play and creativity in a safe and inspiring environment. Sticky Fingers is like a petrol station for art, fuelling creativity within our younger generation, refilling their tanks and allowing their imagination to flow with happiness in every direction. It has been a joy to work on the project with such a friendly team of professionals at Sticky Fingers.”
The artwork will remain on permanent display, now part of the fabric of the art centre. |
