Untitled 2018

Kinder Album made this untitled painting with colourful markers, and you can tell they were thinking about art history. I can just picture the artist outside, in the garden, and they're trying to capture the strange beauty of nature's funny layout, but with some human drama. A bright blue figure is laid out across the bottom half of the painting, surrounded by a lush garden. In the background, a garden gnome and an owl hiding in a stone structure add a touch of surreal humour. What does it all mean? Well, maybe nothing, and maybe everything! Like, is that reclining figure a nod to classic Renaissance paintings? Or is it about playing with colour and texture? Maybe both? When you bring different sensibilities together, it becomes an exchange of ideas through time. It’s like all us artists are just chatting to each other, across centuries, and we're all inviting you to join the conversation.
