NEW TO THE COLLECTION DISPLAYS AT TATE ST IVES Phoebe Unwin Man with Heavy Limbs 2009 This work depicts a seated male figure in profile with his forearms and hands resting on his thighs. Rendered in a variety of materials, from charcoal and pastel to acrylic and ink, the work is made of four sheets of paper mounted together in the frame. The printed pattern acts as both clothing and the interior, thus confusing the relationship between the figure and the background. The depiction of a single fragmented figure follows Unwin’s interest in removing any sense of narrative or reality. This way, the figure stands alone in the work’s own imaginary world with no sense of place or time. ➡️ See this work on display at Tate St Ives ➡️ Book admission online tate.org.uk/visit/tate-st-ives © Phoebe Unwin @amandawilkinsongallery #PhoebeUnwin #TateStIves #Tate
