(1102) Hjördis Thelander - Winter fishes
170
About this artwork
My artwork ”Winter fishes” is inspired by The Newnes´Pictorial Knowledge Encyclopedia. Volume 1. The water folk. ”How fish keep warm in Winter” Page 222.
I was inspired by the photograph of a colony of fish in the famous New York Aquarium. When the temperature was lowered to winter temperature, they joined together in a dense cluster to help each other stay warm.
The image is a photo in black and white.
I interpret the fishes cooperation as love, warmth and light. Their fantastic collaboration is touching and beautiful.
All these loving and helpful fishes inspired me to create a pencil drawing in black and white.
The love and warmth of the image is symbolized by the small fish with the hearts, swimming together against the light.
There are tree figures in the foreground that invite the fishes into their warmth of love and fellowship.
A big bird-fish swims into the image from outer space, he is a symbol of the Father who kindly looks after his little ones. The little girl with the fish in her arms usually shows up in my drawings.
About Hjördis
Drawings made with a simple pencil on a piece of paper forms the basis of my creations.
The simplicity of the black-and-white grayscale and the meditative process as the image emerges makes me incredibly happy!
My artworks are detailed and they always tells a story. This story or fairy tale is open to interpretations by anyone who looks at the artwork. Feelings and thoughts about a work of art are a reflection
of the viewer’s own world – the universe of thoughts and feelings that we all consist of.
While looking into an artwork, a dialogue with ourselves sometimes arises.
The worlds that my drawings and paintings shows are both realistic and surreal at the same time. To illustrate everything that is beautiful and loving is my mission.
The contrast between light and darkness, the cooperation between the lines, the colors and the shapes form a symphony in my inner cosmos.
I love color, space , light, love and contrasts. Soft movements and distinct lines characterize my art.
