Artist Statement for Trevor Craig Adair Mcdonnell
|
|
|
Disconnection between human beings and nature is a predominant theme in my Speedscapes series. For most urbanites, nature is an abstract image in the backs of their minds and interaction with nature amounts to a scenic view from a speeding car. The escalating cost of living demands a hectic lifestyle in order to either make ends meet or to maintain the standard of living one is used to. Urban migration is growing and since the majority of the world's population now lives in urban centres, nature is being left behind and forgotten.
The images depicted in my Speedscapes are either vague memories, sites unseen, or places abandoned. Simultaneous notions of speed and tranquility are used to make salient a dilemma of contemporary life. There are no signs of human existence in the Speedscapes for they are meant to portray either a missed opportunity or a time in the distant future... long after we are gone.
