Description : Alan Davie’s The Farmers Family Experience a Strange Blue Revolving Object (2011) is a wonderfully imaginative work that captures the playful symbolism and instinctive creativity characteristic of the Scottish artist’s later practice.
Executed in oil and felt-tip on paper, the composition centres around a vivid blue, eye-like form surrounded by fluid shapes, miniature figures, numbers and mysterious symbols. Soft washes of green, turquoise, ochre and purple create a dreamlike environment in which Davie’s marks appear to float freely across the surface.
The intriguing title adds another layer of narrative to the work, inviting the viewer to interpret the strange central object and the curious world surrounding it. Created in 2011, the piece demonstrates Davie’s enduring fascination with mythology, the subconscious and the creation of his own highly personal visual language.
