Original painting in oil on canvas.
"They turn their heads toward one another as though to take a better look, perhaps to check whether there is another more magnificent than themselves- an unlikely flock, they seem unaware that united they form a kaleidoscope of pattern and colour."
Paris Blanche Magenta Foot's paintings retain a unique and distinctive visual language, which is immediately recognizable and absorbing. Foot’s mixed media pieces are also brilliant; tactile and engaging - and quite touching. The faces of the pieces - caught somewhere between figuration, puppetry and debris – are reminiscent of the luminous faces of the films of the silent era, despite being based on personal source material culled and elevated from family photographs. Stylistically incongruent, the expressions of the figures seem sweetly unaware of what the rest of them are made up of.
