About the Item
Ginger Williams Cook is a painter, published illustrator, and arts educator based in Jackson, MS. Her paintings have been featured in numerous exhibitions, publications, and media. Ginger's journey into motherhood and coping through art is featured in an HBO Documentary, The Dead Mothers Club. Her painting comparing phantom limb sensation to grief was selected as the documentary's featured poster.
She is an avid sketchbook artist who cultivates an intuitive drawing practice to document the mundane. Ginger uses digital illustration to develop mockups, experimenting with imagery, color palettes, and composition. The techniques in her artwork combine washes of acrylic paint that take shape with colored pencils and pastels, serving as a visual conversation between two hemispheres - the creator and the corrector dancing through a changing process. The common thread in her work is emotional attachment to physical objects, and the power nostalgia has to unlock a memory.
The artist says of her work...
The setting of Fidus Amor and Flora & Zephyr draws inspiration from Baroque- style landscapes with an applied field of color harkening to works by Maurice Noble and Chuck Jones - creators of the background animation design in Looney Tunes. The subjects are modeled after 1700s French and German porcelain figurines for their gestural and sculptural qualities. I love capturing the opaque, pastel glazes and further enjoy examining how antique porcelain has visible hairline fractures as a natural release of tension within the material.
The drapery within Unviable depicts the emotional tension of losing bodily autonomy as a woman facing decisions about her body and reproductive health. It is a voyeuristic invasion of privacy that hangs heavy and layered. The use of drapery as a visual device echoes the symbolism used in Neoclassicism and the uncanny characteristics implemented in Magic Realism, particularly the work of Honor Sharrer.
