six eves play hide-and-go-seek, 2011, acrylic on canvas, 150cm x 90cm
As a child, I always played hide-and-go-seek with a little trepidation and absolutely no sense of fun and game. How could anyone enjoy a game where you had to hide in a lonely, isolated place while someone sought you out? It’s far from pleasant. As for the seeker, how terrifying and just as existentially creepy. It’s like a horror shot from some thriller movie around every corner. No fun at all and absolutely senseless.
