Jimmys

Lysande skulpturer av glasfiberarmerad polyesterplast/

Glowing sculptures, made of polyester reinforced with fibreglass

 



Monika Gora’s Jimmys tempt you with their glowing, luminescent orange colour, their organically curved, sweeping bumps and bubble shapes. They warm you up and make you happy. Who can resist them? They seem to have fallen out of a bag of candy: delicious and a bit disgusting at the same time. Tactile and physical. Animal abstractions. Obviously artefacts and yet personified life. During the day, when the sunlight penetrates their fibreglass skin, they appear transparent, like bodies with a life of their own. At dusk, in a grey and rainy days or i winter, they glow, and the darker it gets, the more they become overlapping silhouettes. In the autumn, their glow competes with the leaves of the trees.
