About this artwork
An IT related sheep theme. Do you need more computer RAM? Sheep in their inane conformist lifestyle have much to mirror to us about the human condition -eat, sleep, toil and then die for a purpose that remains beyond their (and our) deeper understanding. Like sheep we seldom stop to question our life, its purpose and the validity of what we do. Struggling to achieve a stable patch for ourselves and yet being ever threatened by the inevitable tumble…
downhill, in the repetitive conformism of our lives, sheep become icons for our own insanity. From their lofty heights, sheep set themselves up for an inevitable fall.
“Using common business terminology and other word plays, I attempt to simplify my work to the point that the message is not lost in some convoluted, complexity of artistic angst, but to make its point in a manner that both amuses and yet through humor, gets ewe/you the viewer, to question why you do what you do.

« Our lives are the canvas and, as such, we are both the creator and the creation. »
Ann Gadd, an award-winning South African painter, has exhibited nationally and in the United Kingdom, New Zealand, and Italy. In her works, she employs lightness and humor to reflect the profound, often using African symbolism to celebrate her heritage and illustrate her country's paradoxes. Usually painting in series, Gadd’s unique blend of naive and pop is translated through acrylics on canvas. Her ADD means she switches from series according to mood. Recently longlisted for the Visual Art Open 2024 UK, International Emerging Artist Awards. Finalist in the Singulart International Women's Day 2025 Award
"Being a finalist is a remarkable achievement—one that reflects the strength and originality of your work."
