Artwork Description

Oil on canvas, stretched and ready to hang.

Signed on the front.

This work was my entry for 2021’s Archibald Prize. It contains multiple self-portraits and the aesthetic is definitely by the work of the painter Francis Bacon.
I spent a considerable amount of time on this piece and found it an exciting one to work on, particularly in creating the various marks for the portraits and in the relationship between the portraits and the interior space.
While creating this piece I also listened a lot to The Shining soundtrack, with this darkly atmospheric and unsettling score complimenting the image I was creating.
This is a custom-made quality canvas and is ready to hang with strong wire/d-rings on the back.
