Elinor Evans new solo show ‘Picasso Pact’ looks at the way we interact in groups, or ‘packs’. Casting animal masked figures posing in domestic scenes they appear tribal, displaying their pride and loyalty to the pact. Eilnor says ‘In this series of paintings I´ve engaged with my muse, Picasso, my Dalmatian to investigate the ancestors of the species ¨canus lupus familiarus¨ , that is, The Wolf and The Jackal. I´ve taken a new approach by making the masks in the paintings of the wolves and the jackals by hand. This adds a primitive touch to the paintings.’
