Koodge in the Velvet Night

Published in a limited edition of only 10 unique variables, Koodge in the Velvet Night depicts the artist’s sister looking towards the silhouette of a hill in the distance. Tom Hammick describes how she acts as “intercessor between the onlooker and the creation around her; almost like a renaissance panel painting of St Francis of Assisi feeding the birds or John the Baptist in the Wilderness.” From the darkness, contours of flowers, leaves, trees, and the horizon come into focus. Katie Franklin describes: “The figure’s path is uncertain, and she’s caught, like many of Hammick’s subjects, paused as though deep in thought.”
