Work on paper - Printmaking - Screenprint & Engraving, Bryant, Darren, 'Little Boy' by Darren Bryant, 2009
"My current practice explores and questions ideas about social, cultural and historical inherited gender stereotypes. The images used are sourced from toys, games, models and references to childhood from my own collection. One such toy is a model plane of the Enola Gay. This screenprint, sourced from the box, shows an image of young boy happily clutching his toy plane. The surface of the print is embossed with images of the nuclear weapon that was dropped on Hiroshima."Darren BRYANT ( 06/06/1971- ) Born Lismore, New South Wales Darren’s work explores the familiar landscapes of childhood, identity and the everyday. He received a Bachelor of Visual Arts (Printmaking) from the Southern Cross University, Lismore, NSW, in 1992 and a Bachelor of Visual Arts in Fine Art (Printmaking) from Griffith University, Brisbane, in 1993.
