Sonja Landweer, 1933-2019
FRIENDLY FEATHERED DEMON 1969
Black Grogged Earthenware, Feather, Sisal, 56cm (h).
Provenance: From the Artist's studio.
An early work, which may have been shown initially at the Richie Hendriks Gallery on Saint Stephen's Green, Dublin in 1969, , the work reflects Landweer's lifelong interest in combinations of different materials, natural and inorganic forms. A number of these Friendly Feathered Demons are included in the Gordon Lambert Trust collection at the Irish museum of Modern Art. Indeed Gordon Lambert so admired this work that he retained one of them at his home until his death, although he had already given most of his collection to the museum.
