About this artwork
The uppermost cat in this picture is our chocolate Burmese and he is playing with his friend, a blue Burmilla. They are both neutered toms. They found each other when our boy started to explore the neighbourhood to establish his territory. He very quickly let it be known that other cats would be unwelcome on his ground and he would deal with them accordingly. Then one day we were surprised to see him followed by the blue. No hissing, no arched backs,…
no parallel presentations, no staring matches, but happy chasing over garden furniture and around bushes.
I could not get them to pose - they are cats - so this game is a piece of imaginative reconstruction based on having seen them playing on our terrace one afternoon.
I wanted to emphasise their similar size and shape. I set up a diagonal from corner to corner of the canvas across which I set up a reflected symmetry which I could manipulate.
