INTUITIVE APPROACH
"Intuitive Approach" captures the tension between instinct and reflection. In this painting by The Connor Brothers, featuring a dinosaur set against a backdrop of cool blue tones, the title evokes a sense of acting on inner, subconscious impulses—much like a dinosaur would in a world without modern concerns. The artwork translates contemporary emotions and insecurities into something primal and instinctive, with the dinosaur symbolizing the timeless and elemental within ourselves. In this way, the painting encourages us to reconsider our own "intuitive approach," as a balance between vulnerability and resilience.
The Connor Brothers is the pseudonym for British artists James Golding and Mike Snelle. The duo came to prominence in 2012 and for several years maintained their anonymity by using a fictional biography.
The Connor Brothers’ art intertwines text and imagery to anthropomorphize dinosaurs, bringing to life contemporary fears, hopes and anxieties through a lens that blends unsettling truths with lightheartedness.
This new series ‘Jurassic Dreams’ by the acclaimed UK-based art duo was commisioned by us and is the result of a year long process that was kickstarted in Tucson, AZ in 2023.
