Blodsow is an artist, schooled by instinct alone. He enjoys working close to nature, using as many natural materials. For him, art means questioning accepted norms and offering fresh insights into familiar issues, especially the social pressures that encase every individual human. Of particular interest to him is the death of socialism and hypocrisies in matters related to sex, aggression and the class struggle. At the core of his art, he questions an individual’s fear of change, fear of taking control or leading. Finally he is always exploring the alienation that is becoming integral to human life, as we pursue an elusive materialism while simultaneously losing the human dimension in every facet of life.
