The University of Warwick Art Collection. Laura Ford Days of Judgement (Cat 1) Bronze 2012. From an edition of 5 purchased by the University, 2015. The use of large-scale animal figures, or people dressed as animals, is a strong element in Laura Ford's work; she uses these to create surreal and haunting representations of human emotions and frailties. This cat is one of a group of seven. Their different poses are inspired by the figures of Adam and Eve in a fresco by the Renaissance artist Masaccio called The Expulsion from the Garden of Eden painted in 1427. Here the single cat appears preoccupied with its own thoughts and anxieties, pacing, oblivious to the world around it.
