Transformation by Karen Chappelow-29.5 x 21 cm

This artwork has just returned from Berlin, it was part of an online exhibition titled Door to Door art in the times of Covid.

It began in Australia and quickly grew to over 200 artists worldwide. We were given a page each from the Newnes’ Pictorial Knowledge

Volume 9 A Childrens Treasury of Verse-Little Masterpieces of Today and Yesterday book, my page was

A Midsummer-nights dream: The fairies’ Song and the resulting work is my interpretation of that page.

My page is taken from the Newnes Pictorial Knowledge Volume 9, 1950s edited by Enid Blyton, A Childrens’ Treasury of Verse-Little Masterpieces of Today and Yesterday.

I have painted Transformation as a form of awakening, the transformation of the body into a primal version- of the female, whereas the male looks on as the animal, tricked up to appear human in form. This in a sense for me is the story-no Fairies as such, but what happens in this dreamscape is the dream. It is dreamlike and blurs the edges of reality as a fairytale does, its primal, sexual and holds promise each person possibly becoming another, each person holding the possibility that they are both of these versions of their true self.
The forest awakening, the beast awakening, true forms appearing, true forms hidden…This is my interpretation and my ideal Midsummers Nights Dream
