Description
SOS depicts five shipwrecks of 2012, namely The Tycoon, The Yogi, Doola No3, Bien Nam 17 and the Costa Concordia. In this series Hartman continues her exploration of nautical themes, through evaluating the power and destructive capabilities of the sea. Even these powerful vessels created by humans with years of knowledge of ship construction can be toppled by rough or unforeseen conditions. This body of work speaks to the frailty of our lives and feebleness of our efforts when faced with a natural force such as the sea.Hartman uses natural elements such as inlaid mother of pearl, and gold and silver leaf, as well as store bought paints in order to mirror the fusion of the manufactured and natural represented in this body of work.
