Nick presents his latest print edition inspired by Grant Wood's classic 'American Gothic'.
Measuring 70 x 83 cm, this limited edition giclee is printed on Canson Rag Photographique 310 gsm paper with a screen printed varnish over the colour blocks. Each print is signed, numbered edition of 150 and embossed.
“Every country has a Mona Lisa. When I think of the US... it has to be Grant Wood's American Gothic.”
Psycolourgy
Noun: Using word / colour association to create text within art.
"Using Psycolourgy allows the greatest expression of my personality. My thoughts, memories and opinions, influenced by my current social, emotional and geographical experiences, bleed into the work as each colour conjures its name. At the time of this work’s conception, I happened to be in the 2020 lockdown, with additional family members, fairly isolated, on the West Coast of Scotland.
My piece presents a subtle palette of subdued natural colours. Peaceful at first glance, much like the source artwork, but upon closer investigation, the text reveals some uneasy associations." - Nick Smith
