Singing Sailors


I've found alot to admire in Mark Manders' work, a witty and Peircean approach to object-making. Maybe because I've been planning a trip to islands, and most islands make me think of skull island (energetically littered with masts, mutants and cannibals), but this drawing 'singing sailors' (1998) seems more exuberant sea shanty than exhausted allegory.
