Fantasy Art in Sheffield | Enchanted World of Ryder | Originals For Sale
Did you know that fantasy art in Sheffield is created by Ryder? The point of the artwork displayed and sold by The Enchanted World of Ryder is the appreciation of the art itself. None of the artworks are signed by one particular artist. Often, those viewing the art are influenced by who the artist is. They forget to appreciate the art for art’s sake. Perhaps an artwork is not particularly engaging or doesn’t resonate with the person viewing it, but because it was created by a particular name, the viewer has a different, and not necessarily a true reflection of opinion. A literary critic, Roland Barthes, once wrote a critical essay called ‘Death of an Author’.
In this essay, Barthes surmises that a person must disengage with the author to appreciate the text in its truest form. In Sheffield, fantasy art embraces this assertion. As Roland Barthes suggested, one must look beyond the constraints of the easy answer and to judge each creation on its own merit. He believes that most, if not all people are influenced by our knowledge of the artist, and this influences how he perceives his creation. Fantasy art is created by different artists who all subscribe to this point of view. Each artwork is meaningful to the artist who created it, but can be enjoyed by those how view it. An artwork resonates with the person looking at it, and with fantasy art, the viewer might recognise a little of himself, a place he loves or about his own joy.
Fantasy art in Sheffield is perfect as a gift for a loved one. It is also perfect as a gift to yourself.
