New to Art-el - The art of Clean, by Art-el on Jan 13, 2009 21:13:11 GMT 1, In typical Art-el style we thought we’d slip something new, fresh & inspiring under the radar while the world was getting in a right old ‘Empire State’.
Far removed from traditional graffiti or street art, but still in the genre of grime we bring you the works of Sarah Cockings & Alice Hodge who collaborate to reveal the murky & dirty dealings of ‘Clean’!
The word ‘unique’ gets trotted out far too easily in the crazy world of art. So we won’t burden The ‘Clean Collective’ with that one. lets just say their work is incredibly ‘Sui generis’. You gotta love a delve into the ‘Thesaurus’ once in a while.
Baking Tray - Dirty Dishes - Ship Tray
Artist Statement
CLEAN. Artist duo, Sarah Cockings and Alice Hodge. Born 1982
By taking the grubby and grotty bits of life that are consciously covered up, hidden in drawers, shoved under beds and stuffed under sofas, & grotty cupboards.
Clean aim to challenge status and turn what is perceived as beautiful on its head.
The dull and dirty become decadent and opulence is brought back to base.
An eclectic mix of the sublime and the ridiculous
Come check it at www.art-el.co.uk/collections/clean
Love your life
Peace
