About this artwork
Growing up in a holiday destination, small, seaside town it is not surprising that much of Day’s work has referenced the sea, the beach and littoral. In this series of paintings the canvases echo the marks, lines and shapes that she made in the wet, grey sand of her home town beach: thus the canvas becomes the beach that acted as the canvas of her child-hood.
The title of these works is taken from a line is W.B. Yeats’ poem ‘The Man Who Dreamed of… Faeryland’ w here a young man careworn by money worries and adulthood encounters a simple lugworm who sings:
But while he passed before a plashy place,
A lug-worm with its grey and muddy mouth
Sang that somewhere to north or west or south
There dwelt a gay, exulting, gentle race
Under the golden or the silver skies;
