About this artwork
I have created this piece by laminating pieces of timber from a 100 year old staircase. The details on the head such as hair plugs, eyes, and teeth are made from ceramic. The hair is acrylic fibre. The bag is made from a Swedish native tree called Ren.
The character also holds a child's toy, a little Kangaroo. The shoes are fashioned fron Björk (Birch) and the legs and arms are made from Elm.
Wednesday's gone shopping portrays a carefree, wide eyed… child. For some reason I thought of the character Wednesday from the Adams family when I created her. Hence the slightly scary appearance. She is available as seen in the picture free standing or with a flat 30cm x 30cm x 4cm stand made from laminated Oak.

« Our world is tearing itself apart environmentally, socially, and economically. It is my job to highlight the faults as I see them. I disguise dark themes with color and rhythmical lines. »
Marc Rayner is an Australian artist based in Sweden who has exhibited his works nationally, as well as in Sweden, Monaco, France, Qatar, Italy, India, South Korea, Denmark, and Japan. The key to his artworks is the creation of 'quasi-landscapes' rich in text and design, or flat and almost devoid of information. This 'distorted zone' is a place where Rayner's tormented, disenfranchised, and often unfortunate characters exist. He is drawn to outsider artistic styles and naive art in broader terms.
