'I ain’t saying I’m a prophet, no it ain’t like that but it’s like that.’
Enoch Emery.
Kim Henenberg’s latest work is in response to viewing Wise Blood, a John Huston film, adapted from a Flannery O’Connor novel. Intrigued by the characters destructive journey, this work looks at several in isolation. Taken from frames poignant to each character, the artist combines a sense of lightheartedness against the haunting realism of a bleak and bizarre, southern gothic storyline. Now detached from the celluloid, in gently distorted watercolours, new interpretations can be obtained.
