Regressive Progression2019
H117 W122 D165 cm Reclaimed Jarrah wood sleepers, canvas and vinyl shopping bag, emulsion, glazed stoneware, clinker, gold leaf. £15,000 These portraits are infested with the rapid industrial progress of the past. Gnarly golden nuggets of clinker erupt from the skin's surface, a by-product of progress's wealth, prosperity and mass production. They sit upon discarded supports of an industrial revolution that migrated society - a society that has become the mass consumer. The shopping bag overflows with the latest must-haves that then melt to a suffocating carpet of colour. |
