Our latest collaboration with the brilliant Candice Tripp will go on sale this Thursday at 3pm (UK) and we couldn’t be happier.
‘The Day We Stole The Moon’ is a delightfully disturbing depiction of lunar entrapment orchestrated by a cadaverous mob of ghoulish beasts.
Based on an original painting by Candice this edition was handprinted here in our Uppingham studio using a photopolymer etching plate. This process helps to retain the levels of fine detail that Candice is famous for.
The edition will go on sale at 3pm (UK) this Thursday 11th March via our webstore.
Candice Tripp is a South Africa born artist living in the North East of England.
At 21 her darkly humorous paintings caught the eye of a local gallery who provided the platform for her first solo show. At 22 her work was being exhibited in LA.
Child-like subjects pluck at adult themes in paintings whose narrative provide all the answers one could expect to find on single page torn from a picture book.
As a self taught painter, her ever-evolving practice now extends to include etching, sculpture, brass work and full scale installation.
She has had solo shows in London and New York, provided the award-winning artwork for Arrow Video’s release of Donnie Darko and exhibited in the first inaugural Bangkok Art Biennale in 2018.
