Paddy Killer, '26@62+26 snippets'...


Paddy Killer has been a member of the 62 group for over 26 years so for this exhibition she created 26 life-size snippets of previous pieces that she has exhibited over this period of time. Paddy Killer illustrates her work using her drawing and painting skills and bonding these individual squares on silk. I like the contrast between the delicacies of the silk fabric against the sharp detail from the snippets. I was amazed when looking at these detailed snippets, she controls her drawings to the finest detail, a lot of time and patience must have gone into this. This piece does not have a function. This piece is different to what I normally like, this piece is flat, does not have a function, contains only detailed drawings, however, I do like the idea of this piece telling the artists journey through time.
