Inhaltsangabe

In Colours of the Swan, the two artists come together juxtaposing their mediums, creating a piece of art which celebrates the connections between magic and life, colours and words, freedom to imagine and obligation for authentic representation. Using a unique mix of hues and shapes, words and metaphors, Eleni and Kate imagine their swans into meanings which augment each other, reaching levels of meaning they could not convey with their individual mediums. Eleni’s poems respond to Kate’s eight paintings, bound by the theme of swans gradually changing colours. The continuum of a white-black transformation of the swans sequence is framed by two dominant birds (The Crane’s Wife and Isis). All names of the paintings and titles of the poems are inspired by ancient civilisations or Gaelic words.
