Lynda Draper‘s new body of work is a series of ceramic avatars that grew out of an assortment of domestic souvenirs collected by the artist over many years. These new works continue her investigation into the uncanny and the evocative metaphysical nature of inanimate objects yet they signify a major process and aesthetic departure from her earlier white pieces. These brightly coloured figures and objects, each with a name and unique personality, are familiar yet strange and seemingly possessed with a power to embody the spirits of the departed.
