The Animistic ideology of giving life to inanimate objects involves a belief in the inherent vitalality and agency of these seeminly lifeless forms. Animists often engage in rituals, ceremonies or practices that are aimed at honouring the communing with the spirits believed to inhabit these objects.
This spiritual animation can manifest in diverse ways, such as attributing emotions, intentions, or even consciousness to elements like rocks , mountains and ancestral artifacts. By acknowledging the lifge force within inanimate objects, animism fosters a holistic worldview that respects the sacredness of all things, promoting a harmonious co-existance between humnans and their surroundings.
'Animism' Original Canvas
Original Canvas
Every original canvas has been hand painted with immense gratitude and love by Joey Baker.
The paintings range from weeks to months of work depending on their detail, every single piece has travelled the world extensively sometimes to multiple continents before being finished. From Jungles to deserts, Volcanoes to Tropical Islands, from Palaces to Temples to street corners and everywhere in between. They are my personal account of the world I experience.
Each canvas is painted with high quality acrylic paint onto Berlin based Gesso Canvas. The paintings once finished have then been double varnished in Golden © Semi-Gloss Varnish for the best results for both vibrancy and protection, they have then been individually bespoke framed.
Every Original Canvas also comes with:
-
Signed COA (Certificate of Authenticity)
-
Original A4 Drawing
-
Hand Embellished Canvas Print (of your choice & size)
