Artist research: Grayson Perry 

Grayson Perry is an English contemporary artist born in 1960 24th march who is well known for his ceramic vases and tapestries.

my favorite piece of art from Grayson Perry is ‘The adoration of the cage fighters’.In the center of the tapestry is a baby in the arms of his mother,this is like a modern interpretation of  Madonna and child scene from Christian iconography.The scene is set in his grandmothers house with everything colorfully decorated. The mother seems to be occupied by her phone it appears while the baby is trying to get her attention.It seems like the mother is texting the ladies across from her to go on a night out and is not paying any attention to the baby and they seem to be waiting for the mother .

I absolutely love this tapestry with the the bright colors and meaning behind it 

Grayson Perry is also famous for his cross dressing, after many years of experimenting with wearing woman's clothes he came up with his alter ego ‘CLAIRE’ he says he does this for his creative drive.

Vu à la monnaie de Paris

un plus pour les mots qui se traînent

un plus pour les gravures qui fourmillent

un plus pour les couleurs des broderies

le vendeur de journaux n’avait plus le point sur Jérusalem

A mix of camera and iphone photos from my stay at Grayson Perry’s ‘A House For Essex’ in Wrabness, Essex. 

The house felt as much of a gallery as it did a functional house, the kitchen was stocked with every utensil you could possibly need and the attention to detail throughout was impeccible. There was a selection of music and books relevant to Julie Cope’s life and the local area which really helped to set the scene.

The scenery around was just as beautiful as the house, it was set in a field with the marshland at the end of a track running alongside the house, it was bitterly cold the whole time we were there but it was amazing looking out at the frosty fields in the morning, drinking coffee, with a log fire burning and Joni Mitchell on the stereo.

Bristol Trip - 18.10.17

We started our trip at the Arnolfini to view Grayson Perry’s ‘The Most Popular Art Exhibtion Ever!’. This show was so so good and explored the ins and outs of society and the balance of right and wrong. The judgement faced and emotions dealt with. This exhibition was a pleasure to view and Perry’s work conveyed a huge sense of meaning.

We later walked to Spike Island to see Kim Yong-Ik ‘I Believe My Works Are Still Valid’ exhibition. His work looks at aesthetics and well as social events at the tiime and a response to that. His work has been subject of debate in his home country due to the intentions behind it.
