Inspiration


Jane Adeney
A Small Garden
I am excited to share the work and new website of one of my favourite artists: Jane Adeney.  I met Jane through her work early in my career as an artist and was instantly inspired and in awe.  Later, I was fortunate enough to get to know her better and have seen her fascinating work develop over the last 10 years.  There is a resonance that is shared with many artists who work with found objects that I first felt in seeing Jane's boxes, but her work is so mush more than just that.  Dark and mysterious with secrets hidden deep inside each creation, these sculptures whisper of desires and impulses that are felt but rarely vocalized.  They appeal on a visceral level, and are beautiful to behold.  This particular piece is one of the most treasured items in my own art collection, and I enjoy it everyday.  Jane's website is a treat, and offers a great look at some of her wonderful creations.  Please take a look!
