Jolanta Johnsson
Shelter

1997

About the Item

Jolanta Johnsson, experienced Polish artist, graduate of the Academy of Fine Arts in Warsaw, PhD of fine arts, university teacher. She currently lives in Sweden. This is how she writes about the drawing: A shelter is a sanctuary where we find solace and security, a refuge from the dangers and threats that may surround us. While the media inundates us with reports of armed conflicts and wars, there are also everyday challenges that we seek shelter from. Whether it be work-related stress, financial struggles, health issues, or feelings of insecurity and isolation, we all need a safe haven to turn to, shelter from the storm of life. This shelter is often provided by another human being who offers us support, understanding, and comfort. It is a place where we can seek help, find a listening ear, and experience moments of closeness and care. As we nestle into this shelter, we feel its warmth and positive energy enveloping us, allowing us to leave our troubles at the door and focus on the present moment. In this safe space, we can gather the courage to contemplate the future and gather strength for what lies ahead. It is a place where we can recharge and rejuvenate, ready to face whatever challenges may come our way. In this drawing I want to show how important a shelter we are for each other.

  • Sam, Reclining Male Nude with Hounds Tooth Background and Floral Foreground
    By Brian Driscoll
    Located in Chicago, IL
    "Sam" by Brian Driscoll is presented in three layers. The male nude reclines in front of a background of hounds tooth wall paper and then Sam is overlayed with a veil of floral designs. It is as if are being allowed to draw back the curtain into this very private space. This three-dimensional quality of Driscoll's drawing is highly complex in its execution. Each layer is a different geometrical pattern - the heavy lines that take up the wallpaper, the tiny hash marks that evolve into Sam and finally, the absence of color to create the floral curtain. Brian Driscoll Sam, 2019 ink on paper 17h x 14w in 43.18h x 35.56w cm BWD013 Through drawing, Driscoll creates Midwestern mythologies exploring aspects of masculinity in working-class rural America...
