Arranged Flowers in a Wild Garden - Olive’ are two new silkscreen
editions by Bruce McLean to mark the artist’s 80th birthday as well as the 10th anniversary of Worton Hall Studios.
The prints are part of an ongoing body of work that sees the artist
present structured compositions of still life scenes which feature
ceramic objects he has created, allowing the viewer to consider
encountering the same subject matter in print or paint and in sculpture.
By immortalizing his ceramic creations in a two-dimensional form,
McLean continues to explore a new context for the 3D pieces by
presenting a composition within a composition, questioning establishment
thinking as well as methods of display; an idea that has been a running
theme in McLean's work throughout his career.
The new editions also incorporate elements of a previous series of
works that feature designs of fauna and flora as seen in his much loved
garden-inspired works.
‘A Vase of Arranged Flowers in a Wild Garden - Yellow’ and ‘A Vase of
Arranged Flowers in a Wild Garden - Olive’ are screen prints on
Somerset Satin Tub sized 410gsm with hand painted embellishments in
editions of 25.
Prints from the series will be gifted to
McLean’s chosen charity ‘Cure Parkinson’s’
