Maureen Golgata, Birth Of The Sparrow - “Released from fragile shell, free, she embarks on a flight of transcendence, while singing her achingly sweet song..sparrow being busy being born.”
This diptych captures that moment of euphoria, when the human spirit soars beyond ordinary limitations, exceeding the physical in the modern world. Drawn directly from the tube of paint on canvas, this metaphorical work uses gestural drawing to articulate nuances of the human condition, while entwining the connectivity of man and nature. The visceral application of the painted drawing, the drips, smudges and quiet moments among the chaos, parallels the pain, struggle and finally, the exhilaration of this momentous journey.
