SEAN WORRALL - Found it at The Welfare Store (2018) - Acrylic, spray paint, brushwork, gloss varnish on found canvas (125cm x 90cm).
This piece has been evolving since the start of the year, a piece called “Found it at The Welfare Store” (2018)Acrylic, spray paint, gloss varnish on found canvas (125cm x 90cm). The canvas was found in a skip in Hackney last year, and when a canvas is thrown out then leaves and layers will grow on it, sometimes starz will as well (with a z of course, you’ve got to rock six times, this is pop art), the canvas had very little painted on the front of it but quite a bit written on the back. It was exhibited at the Intent show last week, I imagine nothing else will grow on it before it gets to be in a show again, but then a painting is never quite finished until someone takes it away.
As always these pieces can be viewed, by apointment, at my studio in Hackney, East London.
