                         ACTING ON IMPULSE




                                                   Gina Godfrey was inspired by one of her recent
                                                   abstract works called Eyecatcher. This adaptation
                                                   is primarily in the same colours – black and white
                                                   with streaks of orange and blue to represent brain
                                                   impulses. The frontal lobes that look like large bug
                                                   eyes are associated with executive functions such
                                                   as self-control, planning, reasoning and abstract
                                                   thought, which the artist thought would be fi tting
