time machine

The Time Machine by George Shaw

The Time Machine (2010), a Humbrol enamel painting on board by George Shaw. one of the pieces on the Turner Prize shortlist.

i absolutely cannot get over the visceral experience these vivid colours provide for. the boldness of the blacks create an almost altered dimension that transports the viewer into the frame. perfectly akin to the time machine it depicts.

lullaby

the fact of the matter is that i cannot stop listening to this. over.

                                                                                               and over.

                                                                                                               and over again.



the rain crying tears on the warm windows is providing the most perfect percussion as i look out across the blue bay and imagine warm steaming chips in amsterdam.
