These images are impressive and interesting in their own right...and there are many stories behind them. Very sadly, the home of Clifton Pugh, and where Jake studied, was burnt down some time ago in the Victorian Bush Fires, along with these and many other original artworks.
“Fragments of the Spirit” - An Artistic Journey
“I hope that you enjoy my works and they inspire your journey in this beautifully profound life. Peace.” Jacob (Jake) Brookes.
Jake Brookes is a resident Artist, Musician, Writer and Actor at Glenelg Art Gallery, South Australia
The majority of these works were created in his residency at Clifton Pugh's artists retreat called Dunmoochin, located one hour from Melbourne in Cottles Bridge. Free Expressionism was the theme under which these artworks were created and they represent the symbolic melding of dreaming and waking consciousness.
It was an unique opportunity to create in one of Australia’s most successful artists houses and to work alongside some incredible international artists who had also been accepted by the Dunmoochin Foundation to do Residences’ in the local artist community.
This experience with Dunmoochin was highly influential in his artistic development, appreciation for the Arts and connected him to some profound circles of internationally renowned and emerging artists from around the world.
His artistic journey began as a classically trained violinist from the age of six. And this appreciation for music is reflected in the Art that he creates today. Painting, sculpting, writing, composing music and acting are all part of the one magic circle that governs his artistic journey. These artworks, he is now offering as Limited Edition prints, so that their stories may be appreciated by the larger community. All works were created in forest and rural environments and he is excited to have these works on display in Adelaide for the first time.
Any queries regarding any of the artworks please contact the Glenelg Art Gallery for further information.
Many of the artworks from the ‘Fragments of the Spirit’ series are also featured in the artwork of the solo album that he is currently working on in Adelaide entitled “Songbook”. The songs off his first solo album entitled “Rara Avis”, recorded in Canberra by the renowned engineer, composer, musician, artist and producer Harvey Welsh; are currently available as free downloads to your play list at www.myspace.com/jb99973 for a short time only. Several of the Artworks from ‘Fragments of the Spirit’ accompany the songs on this site.
‘I believe in these paintings as they are fragments of my spirit. They communicate things that my words cannot. I hope that you enjoy my works and they inspire your journey. For on a journey we go and flow… As the miles pass we start to know Peace.’
