Exhibition: Animate Objects #2

Animate objects #2 Cut-out drawings of objects by Paul Doeman.
13th – 22nd August Wednesday – Sunday 12-6pm

You’re an animate object, a sum of many parts. Just like a rucksack, chair or ladder you can be taken apart. What is it to be an object? Is what something is just the product of its many functions?
Animate objects was the name of an exhibition I put on in 1998; this show is named  “Animate objects #2” with a view to continuing some of those ideas.

Life-size drawings in oil pastel on paper and cut-out, dance and show-off the personalities of some of the objects that surround us.

The exhibition is at 242 gallery, 242 Cambridge Heath Road, London, E2 9DA.

Do roses look better in a bunch or all spread out like specimens mounted for our observation? Perhaps just like other objects roses deserve a chance to be considered on an individual basis.
Like other objects flowers have personality and should be considered valuable in their own right, even without being arranged.
