Justine Mahoney - Majesty

About the Item

Majesty forms part of Justine Mahoney’s Mage series. The body of work explores the tumult and transformation universally experienced in the period between adolescence and adulthood. The word “mage” dates back to the 15th century and means “magician or enchanter”, someone who acquires knowledge or wisdom using supernatural means. Mahoney’s characters are inspired by a particular mage – the central character in Ursula Le Guin’s coming-of-age novel A Wizard of Earthsea – who struggles with a shadow creature symbolising his dark side. Many of Mahoney’s sculptural figures are challenging and transgressive, embracing the totality of human identity: power and vulnerability, desire and self-protection, broken-ness and healing.
