If we all got together…
We recently bought this print by Ornamental Conifer at the “Power in Numbers” Cure Studio/Print Club show. The simplicity of the phrase struck a chord with Bracket:
"If we all got together it might just work" by Ornamental Conifer
We asked the artist where the phrase came from:
My friends and I were thinking up ideas for the Power in Numbers show and it sprung to mind that if we collectively came up with a great idea we might just get picked. Sadly this tangent never came to be as we all wandered off in our own direction when it finally came to submitting our work.
And when we asked what the ‘it’ referred to:
‘It’ was referring to whatever ‘it’ is you aspire to attain, collectively and with the support of others we can achieve awesome greatness.
Bracket couldn’t agree more!
Ornamental Conifer is a big fan of stating the obvious, and the phrase “if we all got together it might just work” is a perfect example of this. I even wonder why, in today’s society, there isn’t a motto like this for the creative sector. We’re facing lots of different challenges locally, nationally and globally – artists have the potential, and the ability, to get together and create some great solutions!
