About The Artwork

This drawing forms part of a set of drawings created while producing a series of sculptural assemblages titled "A Catalogue of Shapes". The aim of this series was to depict the ancient Greek poet Homer not as a person, but as a compositional system through the creation a series of composite object portraits of twelve characters drawn from the Iliad and the Odyssey. Kalypso ΚΡΥΠΤΩ is based on the character Calypso, the goddess who rescues Odysseus when he is thrown by a tempest onto her island of Ogygia and attempts to separate him from the world in the Odyssey. The function of the drawing is to establish such compositional aspects as proportion, colour, pattern, etc. of the various found and fabricated elements I plan on using in the sculpture.
