“Father McKenzie writing the words of a sermon that no one will hear,
No one comes near.” - The Beatles
This painting, "Father McKenzie" was inspired by the Beatles' song "Eleanor Rigby" through its depiction of solitude and contemplation, themes central to the song. In "Eleanor Rigby," Father McKenzie is portrayed as a lonely figure, tending to his duties in a world that seems detached and indifferent. The vibrant yet stark contrasts in the artwork could symbolize the colorful yet isolating aspects of modern life, echoing the song's melancholic tone. The architectural elements may reflect the church setting, grounding Father McKenzie's character in a place of worship, while his reflective pose captures the essence of introspection and unfulfilled connection described in the lyrics.
This piece is part of my ongoing exploration of "Faces and Facades," a series of mixed media paintings where people and places intertwine, with architecture serving as a vessel for unseen narratives. Inspired by characters from Beatles songs, each work aims to evoke the stories and emotions hidden beneath the surface, inviting viewers to look beyond the obvious and discover the deeper layers within.
