Carmel Jenkin – Heartbroken – 2011
‘Heartbroken’
Carmel Jenkin, Melbourne Artist
Ink, Acrylic on Canvas
There are no obstacles in Carmel Jenkin’s work. Her nudes are for: ‘getting emotion out there’ . To achieve this, she brings the nude right up to the picture plane, to directly involve the viewer with the subject. While there is an element of abstraction in her work, the female ambience, as if the artist’s eye got so close she could see the nude as emotion in a series of curved shapes. These works are raw and immediate and usually have a distorted and linear form. They may portray a sense of naked angst but, at the same time, show possession of a deeply spiritual soul. At the risk of exclusionism one wonders if these works, drawn by a woman, are a language to be read and pondered by other women. Either way, Carmel Jenkin is engaged in a passionate journey of artistic and life discovery through the female body.

A rare mid 19th Century Chinese export Chinoiserie iron-red and blue transfer-printed dragon pattern, part dinner service, having several English copies with Pseudo Chinese marks.
