40" X 60" oil on canvas Available from the studio For information ... Contact us This is a life-sized rendition, based on "Resurrection, study," an earlier work in the Sirens series. The story point ... A fable among the creatures of Mer, handed down through the generations, tells the tale of the birth of their kind. Sirenia was granted the power of resurrection, in recognition of her love and sacrifice. Writing has long been a integral part of Mark Heine's creative process. In the pursuit of his original artistic voice, Mark's writing has evolved to become the driving force behind his work and has led him to envision a world of his own creation. Sirens, the culmination of 44 years exploration, is inspired by the sea-nymphs, made famous in Homer's Odyssey. These underwater visions of mythological muse are rooted in the moments of an ongoing and developing fictional narrative. This complex narrative, involving human evolution and our natural environment, is the unifying conceptual thread that ties these surreal visions. |
