Di-solve two


George Mallick
Di-solve two. 2012

Private collection


In portraying this work the artist consciously renounces elaborate or perfectionist techniques in favour of an assemblage of related materials often foreign to established artistic traditions. The theme tackled is the heroism of the “everyday” and the piece ironically questions our attitude to stylistic features in the market driven art world. The work often assimilates new materials reflecting the social and cultural framing of its location.
