Fraught (Because Life Isn't Pure, Simple, Silent, Honest and Absolute)
Fraught (Because Life Isn't Pure, Simple, Silent, Honest and Absolute) | 2015 | Paint on Kerfed Stretcher | 900 mm x 1890 mm x 30mm ( 35" x 74" x1" )
Grey paint on hand bent wooden triangle using Farrow & Ball "Dark Undertones". The stretcher was kerfed and hand bent by the artist employing factor methodologies favored by Alan Charlton and Carl Andre. This work was inspired by the analysis of the pricing of works by key artists at the RA Summer Show 2015 and comments on the gender imbalance on the values of artwork.
