‘The Trap‘, by artist Audrey Bunt, is available at 13 Water St, courtesy of the Three Rivers Art Trail!
This mural is a snapshot of the long tradition of catching lobster on this island. The work may have been hard and uncertain, with no guarantees of how big the catch would be, or if the weather and tides would work in the fishermen’s favor. But there place of work is hard to beat, for its beautiful surroundings.
About the Artist
Her muse is the landscape and sea of the Island where the richness of the colour of the island and the calm blue shores inspires her, to try to capture the essence of this land. “I get immense satisfaction from painting. In an age when noise and activity is difficult to escape, I try to paint “The Moment” with light being the only actor. Painting subjects, in a window of intimacy, with no hidden meaning, and no explanation. I paint, with just the chance, that the viewer may find, for however brief of time, a space where no noise or action is required.”
