Familiarity was a work I did for our
class exhibition when I was in 200 level. The theme was 'eyes that have ceased
to see'. A phrase gotten from J.P Clark's poem 'Casualties'.
When a baby is born,everything it sees is
wonderful and something beautiful to be explored and enjoyed. As it grows
older, however it gradually loses interest and gets familiar with its
surroundings and everything in it. The inner circles represent the way a new
child sees the world and the outer circles eventually tapers out into less
detailed patterns. Everyday patterns. That's familiarity. Eyes that have ceased
to see.
