Andy Kingston subbmitted into the 2011 Portage Cermaic Awards, and was a finalist. His earthenware 'Droogs' are fantastically detailed and very much need to be viewed from all angles. In the
Portage catalogue Andy had the following to say about this series of work:
"the old man was chasing his son round the room;
he was chasing his son round the room!
And while he was chasing his son round the room,
he was chasing his son round the room!"
This song was sung by my old Poppa when I was a child. It still makes me smile.
These Droogs were teased out over a long time of being draped around the lounge shelf during an unsettled time. Sad songs were sung to them and a slow dance teased the numbers and clues out of them..
These Droogs are phone doodle friends.
These Droogs remind me of an op shop in Bristol, England called La Freak Boutique. It was a place where you would choose the most peculiar outfits for the coming music festival. Oh, to character up and slink off into the dark, chasing the heart of Saturday night.
These Droogs are you sink a my swan.
