Oh My Goddess!: Adrienne Doig
Over 2000 years ago, ancient Greeks and Romans crafted votive figures, humble statues intended as offerings to temples, shrines and graves. In Oh My Goddess!, the playful statuettes of Adrienne Doig reframe votives in a modern exploration of personal worship.
By creating goddesses in her own image and using recycled fabrics, Doig disrupts the conventional artist-muse relationship and delves into the complexity of the self. Through Doig's art, viewers are encouraged to explore the intersections of personal identity, mythology and environmental consciousness. The figures become a conduit for discussions on the malleability of religious and artistic narratives, challenging viewers to ponder whether the divine was shaped in humanity's image or if humans, in turn, moulded gods in their own likeness.
