BIO:
For this benefit sale, my heart turned toward the concept of “tending” to one another. These images are studies of a sculpture in the Vatican collection (from the Sala degli Animali) of two Italian greyhounds. Purportedly, it is a 17th century copy of a Roman sculpture. The duo are a bit ungainly and awkward, which somehow emphasizes their tenderness together.
Amey Mathews is an interdisciplinary artist who lives and works in Santa Cruz, CA. Her works explore themes of intimacy and coexistence between human and other animal beings. She is particularly inspired by her devotion to Yoga, which she has been studying, practicing, and teaching since the 1990s.
