‘DREADLOCK DRUNK’ came from living in Asia and visiting tropical rainforests and visiting far north Queensland and the Byron Bay area. Candyss was obsessed by the pandanus trees and the root system and twisted vines in the forests and along the coastline.
Candyss said about the series:
“We’re all entangled altogether in this one big conscious world we live in. We belong and are an intrinsic part yet we are also alone. We are all part of the supreme consciousness and entangled in one another’s lives. Yet we are separate, small and somehow inferior. With smart phones and fast internet everything is at our fingertips. We share ideas in an instant. Nothing is separate. It is a vast wealth of information in a small yet expansive space continually moving forward yet entirely entwined in this moment in time. The series is an exploration into twisted pandanus roots and gnarly rain forest vines while thinking and exploring these thoughts about people and society and how we interact.
Feeling expansive and belonging yet remote and alone in a magical forest on the coast of wild beaches. I painted the series listening to reggae and decided to title some of the paintings after Bob Marley’s songs.”
