London Art Fair is the premier fair for Modern British and contemporary art
Esther Teichmann
|
On a very different scale from most other hand-made works, Esther Teichmann transforms black and white prints into brightly coloured canvases. The elderly couple in a canoe on a nondescript river are romanticized by the application of wildly psychedelic paint onto the print. Teichmann’s diverse practice also includes collage and a sensual intimate portraiture. This is epitomised by the diptych Drinking Air, described by the artist as ‘ideas of loss and an impossible return, of grief and a sense of inherited homesickness.’
