GIRL POWERby David Graham1450 mm long x 920 mm high x 700 mm deep, 36 kgThis design depicts a selection of leading ladies from Jane Austen's many novels and acknowledges them as individual heroines, each with their individual traits and style. Austen's intriguing female characters have specific characteristics. Together her female form is a formidable force to be reckoned with, similar to comic book super heroes and their fantastic super powers. The bright colours of the design are in contrast to some of the more sombre hues associated with scenes from Austen's book in order to deliberately emphasise the vitality and relevance of her work in today's society. Austen empowers women.David GrahamDavid is Head of Creative Arts at an all girl's school in Liverpool, where he specialises in Graphic Design and experiments with a wide range of other 2D, 3D and digital media including costume, film and yarn-bombing.David first came across the Wild in Art public sculpture trails when the Superlambananas appeared in the streets of his hometown to celebrate Liverpool becoming the 2008 European Capital of Culture.
