Fidget

Acrylic on canvas, 76 x 101.5cm.
This piece explores the awkwardness of male-female intimate physical relationships by juxtaposing abstract but non explicit imagery that hints at sexuality, with the mechanical process of opening a can.
The painterly rendering of the photorealist derived foreground is designed to reference Baroque old masters while simultaneously channelling the techniques of modern photography.
