Sunday Evening Art Gallery — Freya Jobbins

Freya Jobbins is a contemporary German/Australian multidisciplinary artist based near Sydney where her practice includes assemblage, installation, video, collage and printmaking.

Jobbins is a South African born, Australian artist whose life reads like a classic fantasy tale – albeit with distinctively modern twists.Jobbins’ detailed sculptures uses the dismembered body pieces of dolls and toys as parts to create humanoid assemblages of faces, heads and larger busts. An incredible amount of labor goes into each piece, from the exploration of form and the use of color to make each anatomical amalgamation.Jobbins describes this process as, an artistic exploration of the relationship between consumerism and the culture of up-cycling and recycling. “Nowadays, children ‘need’ the latest toys, discarding last week’s fads to start collecting another line of toys. This leads to me finding more and more toys that are in perfect condition available to me to create even more work,” Jobbins says.More of Freya Jobbins‘ extremely unique artwork can be found at https://www.freyajobbins.com/.

    1. I like your comment. Sometimes I come across artists whose media is quite different … art I would not normally explore or try and understand. Jobbins was in a horrible accident some time back, and I’m sure that influences her choice of media. Her work is exceptional, even if it’s a little creepy at times.

      PS I just went to your website and love it! I would love showcasing some of your work. It is definitely unique!
