Caramel Bicarbonate
About this artwork
This piece is from my Impressions series. All pieces in this series are created using the impressions of painted pennies. Money, in intent and consequence, impresses us. Subtly, imperceptibly, it leaves a mark. Materially worthless, it has been awarded great value. It compels us to action, it compels us to wit. A model for equality that feeds on necessity and desire, that rewards innovation and toil, that rewards slight of psychological hand. A zero-sum game without fixed supply. The manifestation of the minds of men. Allocation transcends generations and, more often than not, dictates lot.
The impressions series – figurative, literal – explores the subconscious impact of an abstract concept. Money’s impression influences perception.
This piece is on a gallery wrapped canvas with finished edges. It comes ready to hang. Â
