I See You collection The Gaze (Original: Gouache and Impasto Medium on Paper, Great Britain, September 2016) Man, seated. While the art has a sexy vibe, the noteworthy aspect of the image is the design. I ordered an "aubergine" armchair from a catalogue store, when it arrived I saw it was so small - when he saw my face the delivery man was laughing his head off. People don't live in warehouse style art spaces with four thousand pound leather sofas. They don't live in black and white tiled mansions. We live in "executive" apartments, we have our hugely personal, small scale design elements. The space of this painting could be a picture on Zoopla and Rightmove or on your own phone. This space will be there. Browse through Etsy and Pinterest and online reviews of sewing machines. The colours, the reclaiming of quilting and patchwork and that cool lavender pink, today's design. They will be there. I changed the colour of the chair using those inspirations. I completely created the gate-leg table at the back of the room. And the bench, like the square-rough school chairs but made long, I made that up too. That's a freedom painting gives you. I think it would be awesome for that bench to exist. I want that modern bench, that rustic table. I want to sit at that table, do my homework, whatever, look out over that cityscape. Yes, the image has a sexy "Breakfast at Tiffany's"-type vibe, but the key is: it could not have been painted in the 1960s. It couldn't have been painted in the 1980s, or or the 1800s. It is rooted in the aspiration and design of the twenty-teens and that is what makes it an iconic image. One that could last twenty years, a hundred years. Forever.
