Title
Sheep, Shepherds, and a Goat
Artist
Jordan Henderson
Medium
Painting - Oil On Canvas
Description
An allegory of the year 2020 and The New Normal. I built this composition around the widely understood concepts conveyed by ancient, and still useful, metaphors of sheep, shepherds, goats, and wolves. This allegory is multilayered; my usage of the primary metaphors is overt, but built into the primary metaphors are additional, much subtler, layers of metaphor.
I will eventually provide a more detailed explanation, and I am more then willing to clarify points of confusion, but I think viewers will have more fun discovering the metaphorical layers on their own. Additionally, it is worth noting, that the viewer may perceive deeper truths in the elements portrayed in a painting then what the artist intended, and I don’t want to get in the way of that process.
