Homage To Delaunay

£900.00

A recreation of the cradle cover Sonia Delaunay made for her son, John, in 1911. The original (copyright, Centre Pompidou) was shown as part of a 2015 Tate Modern exhibition. I was completely bowled over by its beauty.

I used fabrics of sentimental value, as did Delaunay. Each piece of cloth was once worn by my family and friends. For example, the darker green is from the jacket my daughter wore on her first day at school. Coincidentally, this is the same day I started working at the National Portrait Gallery, and the more vibrant red is from my old uniform.

28 × 21cm, unframed (paper size is A3).

This is a one-off original artwork, although I have made 4 similar pieces, 2 small (this is the large version) and 2 larger.

Price includes tracked delivery and 5% (after postage and transaction fee deductions) donation to Arts Emergency. UK only.
