Yes
£300.00
Inspired by the Charles Bukowski poem “Oh Yes”, this work confronts the paradox of existence.
In direct opposition to the title, the word NO is the focus. A bold, day glo pink N juxtaposed with a golden disc, almost halo-like, around a playful skull depicted naively.
Chapter 13 from Proverbs, literally ripped from the Old Testament, is out of place and context. It’s presented as an inverted flame, or perhaps burying itself into Earth (or our psyche).
The text of the poem is affixed to the border (see photo showing text before application).
Liquitex acrylics, wooden disc, collage on 12″ (30cm) circular stretched canvas.
