2022 S/S OLD BOYS! <FINDING HAPPINESS>
Original artwork signed
Edition 1 of 1
Paint on repurposed London bus panel
ARTIST NOTE:
I need a light to see something.
But the light is invisible to the eye.
Painting is about looking at it,
In the visible things, the invisible
It's also a story.
On the canvas
They're always boys
About my loveliest friends
a form of love
The basic elements of painting are dots, lines, and faces.
It depicts OLD BOY!, the future of all of us, as a space of "time where the light stayed."
