Kiata Mason The bountiful table
acrylic on canvas
152.5 x 122 cm
The bountiful table represents a layering of ideas around the breaking of bread. The fanciful spread brings together memories of meals and gatherings with family and friends. Old stories and concepts are intertwined with discussions about new hopes and dreams of what is to come.
In depicting the sharing of food, I hope to create an energetic space full of generosity and collaboration, revelling in the colours as a rich acknowledgement of how much we have to exchange and learn from one another, and a recognition of our ultimate interconnectedness.
