AT MOURNING WAKE
Upon visiting Tate Britain, I chose this painting as my source of inspiration. Initially, the pattern of the craquelure on the painting was a point of interest. Turner's depiction of death itself, as an alleged response to the Peterloo Massacre was also a point of interest.
An exploration of ideas.
Straying from the morbid interpretation, I wanted to create a modern parallel to this painting. Uncertain of what to make of this, I fell into a slump. And it hit me.
