Inspired by Francis Bacon’s geometry and brutal subjects, I created this artwork to reflect unsettling imagery that nearly passes safe-to-consume levels.
By combining Bacon’s geometrical lines and forms to create the background for this piece (which typically contains more fluid shapes in my work) I explored layering and creating an eerie, flesh-like ambience. While Bacon explores muscle contortions and deformations, I still wanted to represent my own contour drawing style. The combination of the two created a sum that is larger than its parts and frankly, one of my favourite pieces in a while.
