The World Reimagined Globe Commission

About The Globe

“Wonder Under is inspired by the ancient sea life of Africa, giving reference to the bountiful beauty of sea flora and a celebration of the African Sea Goddesses who reside there. The work here is about the Dual nature of Water, its abilities to renew and cleanse alongside how its capacity to destruct and take away anything in its way.  With Mother Africa being the birth place of humanity, we enter into the waters that hold the imprint/ memory of all time and what has passed through it. A layered sea map, connecting and overlapping boundary lines, with reference to the movement of people and these complex layers of history.  As we navigate through the unknown waters and the essence of healing is reflected through the work within the colours chosen. The figures within the work reveal themselves the closer you look, immersed within their surroundings, and very much part of it.  The waters allow us to re enter this space of wonder, and contains everything, enabling us to let go of anything we hold onto, whether that be trauma or desire, the water washes it away, as the sea Goddesses of take us on a journey of re discovery.
