💥‘HA!’🎀 100cm x 130cm matt emulsion, oil paint & oil pastel on canvas 🍭‘HA!’ is my first from a series on paintings exploring feelings & emotions around labour. specifically within the context of customer service. i reckon there’s also a nod to expectations when it comes to very rigid & outdated ideas of gender in this. i want this series to be a dive head first into what it’s like working in customer service & the effects it has on the individual. it’s gonna be ironic, it’s gonna be funny, it’s gonna be sad, it’s gonna be a piss take of all those customers who have CLEARLY never worked in this industry ever! it’s gonna touch on my ever favourite theme of class. it’s gonna be sickly sweet & full of rage. it’s gonna have sprinkles of escapism with big dollops of exhaustion. it’s gonna speak on the low wages, the long hours, the hopelessness & the sense of community you inevitably find with your co-workers. i want people to view this pieces and feel ALL the feels of what it means to work in this world.🍭 __ . . . . . . #saucysez #contemporaryartwork #contemporaryartcollectors #oilpainting #oilpaintingoncanvas #londonart #londonartist #typography #textart #textartwork #pulpogallery2022
