* JENNIFER MCRAE RSA (BRITISH b. 1955), TEMPEST FUGIT: THE KEY AND THE CAT BOX oil on board, inscribed with title verso image size 136cm x 121cm, overall size 143cm x 128cm Framed. Note: McRae studied at Gray's School of Art, Aberdeen from 1987 to 93. Since 1988 her work has appeared in group and solo exhibitions in Britain and America, and she has won numerous awards including the BP Travelling Scholarship in 1999. Best known for her distinctive portraits, she has had work commissioned from the National Portrait Gallery, London and the Scottish National Portrait Gallery. The artist wrote an explanation of her Inspiration for this work and some of the symbolism, in a letter to the owner “As a single parent I also wanted to convey the unease created at the time from the one to one situation and the imbalance any outside relationship can sometimes cause, which explains why we sit a little vulnerably upon a large three-cornered triangle. The pair of shoes in the top left corner signifies something I remember from my child-hood, where my own mother once stressed that she would often sacrifice her own wardrobe to keep me well-shod. (I hasten to add my parents are now enjoying the rewards of a good income now we have all left home) and the reference is to be taken with a definite tongue in cheek! In fact it is a matter poking fun at the seriousness of the situation. The time elements (through the clock and the title) is to convey the precious hours alone and undisturbed before Christmas, my daughter, would burst in and everything would change and the key is her weapon for this intrusion. The cat-box is a beautiful and strange creature I purchased primarily to put into a painting (it is made of wood) and it does in fact open along its middle. Inside I keep my cash, so it’s significant that Christmas clutches it so determinedly! When I saw it in a shop window I knew it would be a wonderful object to use. Anyway, those are all the surface clues explained but there are always the underlying emotions and thoughts that created them in the first place which are best left unexplained. A painting must always be enigmatic in essence.”
