PLAYING "KOI"

163 x 113cm

PLAYING “KOI” - a play on the term ‘Playing Coy’ , this piece jests at the interplay between the decorative and the avantgarde. Nishikigoi, or Koi fish flutter across the canvas - a fish originally produced as a consistent food source in Japan over 200 years ago that later evolved into an ornamental, decorative fish viewed for its beauty as a work of art. It is now both decorative and universally symbolic of peace, love and affection.

The Evolution Collection stands as a vibrant homage to the dynamic urban landscape and the ever-rotating canvas of street art. Conceived during Amy's years in Bristol, UK—a city pulsating with a thriving street art scene and renowned as the birthplace of iconic artists like Banksy and Damien Hirst—these pieces encapsulate the spirit of the streets. The rough, abrasively textured surfaces resemble the worn façades of city walls, while the rapid application of spray paint in bold, lively hues pays homage to the urgency of the street art scene, where time is a critical element. These artworks make a bold statement, reflecting the energy of street art, and are meticulously finished with a high-gloss resin. They promise not only to infuse your space with a burst of color but also to pay a stylish nod to the raw and expressive world of street art.

Acrylics, spray paint, heavy structure medium and resin on canvas.

Comes framed in a beech tray frame.
