BOZ MUGABE EXHIBITION LAUNCH at the GOURTHOUSE GALLERY



BOZ MUGABE

11- 28th FEBRUARY 2009


Boz Mugabe is a self-taught visual artist based in Dublin City.

He developed his ideas into impressive fine detailed ink-drawings on paper.
Mainly in black and white with atmospheric tones of grey and some added colours.
His work is a continued anthropological study, surveying human strength and tribal instinct. It investigates the human mind at it's own natural pace, rather than in a saturation of information, consumption and time when belief patterns are no longer sign of civilization.

"PREMONITIONS OF ENCROACHMENTS II"
Conceptually, this is a series consisting of images addressing the subject of fear, distraction and the superstitions of the human mind. It draws visually and thematically from many influences including illuminated manuscripts, Oriental print-works, pre-renaissance, eastern theology, secular and religious documents, but siphons the human elements rather than the antiquated ones.
