This mixed-media artwork - the 52nd of a series loosely based on the fortification designs of Vauban - uses pre-assembled sheets of Canson Mi-Teinte forming stripes, plus painted sheets of Canson art papers as well as some old music scores and French road maps… all as a collage on canvas. The sheets were marked-up and cut out as angles, then applied to the black painted and scratched 80 x 80 cm canvas revealing the red/yellow undercoat background. I made matching pairs of angles… those with pointed ends to represent males, the ones rounded as females, their different graphic appearances representing pairs of people intermingling at a party… and maybe ‘dirty dancing’!
