Smith made this piece for inclusion in the Fitzwilliam Museum exhibition 'Flux: Parian Unpacked', which he co-curated in 2018. The black parian material contrasted starkly with the shades of white found in the Glynn collection of English parian, which formed the centrepiece of the exhibition. The piece responds to two early eighteenth century bronzes in the museum's collection: 'Leda and the Swan' and 'Ganymede and the Eagle' by Soldani-Benzi. Made using moulds from other objects, including ceramics, this composite piece explores the English museum tradition of displaying unusual kinds of love in Classical art, but (until recently) ignoring allusions to homosexuality. reference term-109891 adlib-term-109891 ad6efeb2-90e2-3107-ada3-8348ed09c40f 21st Century, Early reference term-135740 adlib-term-135740 64198c7f-5f9d-3a9b-ab1d-773409d89177 literal Ireland Ireland country County Kilkenny reference term-135741 adlib-term-135741 ac1947a8-6219-3c8c-9616-a3be2500cdc3 assemblage 1 reference object-14004 adlib-object-14004 f8ea6a6b-7341-359e-b7f7-6da702131002
