Surreal Life Drawing and Anima Animus




Today we have two events in Arena Studios & Gallery.

Deviation: a Surreal Life Drawing is a event that aims to give people the chance to experience drawing models, environments, situations and installations which offer different and interesting shapes, textures and lighting that aren’t usually encountered within a normal life drawing class.

And the Anima-Animus series, inspired by Jungian archetypes is a collection of photographic portraits that use a mixture of costume/sculpture as a means to communicate and explore unconscious thoughts and desires that escape words and description. This exhibition be able viewed by appointment from Thursday 15 August to Sunday 25 August. Preview Saturday 17 August 18.00 – 21.00.


RobertFlynn is a Liverpool, UK based artist. His work is inspired by the psychological, the unconscious and fantasies, and by how these aspects inform the human condition. Working across a variety of mediums, he creates work that explores these elements by using a combination of sculpture, costume, new media and installation which he then photographs, so as to separate the viewer from the object/image, distorting their perceptions of it, and presenting it as a (false/parallel) reality.
