About this artwork
Ann has titled this unlikely balancing act Do Pigs Fly? It’s a humorous juxtapose at a glance, featuring a flying pig, but its underlying meaning is addressing a rather serious topic; it was inspired by the fact that we live in such an incongruous world today: unharmonious, unsuitable, jarring. Ann calls her sculptures “juxtaposes”; she creates them by combining objects that don’t ordinarily go together, and in an unexpected way. They show her sense…
of humour and eccentric way of looking at society. They tell a story that each viewer may interpret in his or her own way. To create these works, Ann scours antique shops, antique fairs and auction houses to collect decadent ornaments, bone china, objet d’art, curios and quirky objects. She then juxtaposes two or three ‘objet’ together. The name of each piece takes even longer to decide on and is as important as the work itself.

« My life is like a mosaic, composed of little fragments of memories, traditions and family histories. Yet despite all this, my heart sings in a quiet whisper. »
Ann Bubis, a painter and sculptor from the United Kingdom, has exhibited in Germany, Czechia, the United States and the U.K. As an intuitive artist, her abstract and realistic pieces are a response to global issues concerning the environment and ‘throw-away society’, as well as ancestral history, to name a few. Bubis works comprise varying styles and media, with her current focus on framed mosaics and sculptures which she calls ‘juxtapositions’.
