Art at the Leisure Education Trust Auction - "Tomorrow's Lunch" by Sheena Rose
Young, Contemporary-Caribbean artist from Barbados, Sheena Rose, has made waves in the contemporary art world.
Sheena is well known for her hand drawn animations and mixed media drawings, but what inspired this form of art? "Well, I remember the first animations I created were about dreams. They were very surreal and very different. I would add images, transfers and mixed media into the animations and my target audience found it very interesting," says Sheena.
While growing up, the young artist treated her bedroom like an art gallery filled with paintings and drawings. Sheena would sell her artwork to her parents for 5 or 10 cents and became very enthusiastic when she made a sale. This increased her passion for art, and in 2008, Sheena graduated from Barbados Community College with her BA in Fine Arts with Honours.
Sheena has been involved in many local and international art exhibitions in the Caribbean, USA, South Africa and South America. She also plans on exhibiting her unique work in Europe soon. "I am really proud so see my work has become so popular," says the Caribbean artist.
In May 2010, Sheena participated in a three month artists' residency at an art studio called Greatmore Art Studio, located in Woodstock, Cape Town. This well known studio gathers local and international artistic talent from diverse cultural backgrounds, in order to encourage new ideas and stimulate creativity and productivity.
Sheena had many wonderful experiences in Cape Town, and some amusing ones too. "Every day I would cook dinner for myself and every night someone would come and visit me and I would offer them some of my dinner. The next morning, I wouldn't have any food left to pack for lunch. I couldn't say no, so I kept on doing this, but I became very annoyed."
She decided to express her frustration on a canvas by creating an artwork titled "Tomorrow's Lunch." The piece illustrates a backdrop of Woodstock with a comic strip expressing Sheena's daily experience of offering her food to visitors.
While visiting the Mother City, Cape Town born artist, Gary Frier approached Sheena and asked her to participate in an art auction that was hosted by the Leisure Group and held at the Strand Tower Hotel in Cape Town. Local and international artists were welcome to donate some of their artworks which were sold individually to the highest bidders.
All the proceeds of the auction were donated to the Leisure Education Trust, which helps underprivileged children. Sheena is extremely passionate about helping disadvantaged children, so she donated the art piece she created in Cape Town - "Tomorrow's lunch" to the auction. This piece was purchased by Japie Swanepoel, owner and founder of online media company Interactive Concepts. The piece is currently displayed in his office. He is extremely fond of the artwork as it reminds him of the talented young artists who have visited Cape Town.
