Caged in Ochre
The same figure isolated in a flat ochre field inside a thin white space-frame, the umbrella flattened to a hovering dome.
How this was made
This piece began with a photograph and a written instruction. Both are kept, so the record is complete rather than flattering.
THE PROMPT AND THE SETTINGS
PROMPT
POSITIVE: Repaint this as a Francis Bacon painting, c. 1970. A single clothed figure of a young adult woman in a long tan coat, walking and holding an umbrella, isolated in the centre of a flat empty saturated field of dull ochre and grey-mauve colour; no nudity, non-sexual, no blood or gore. A thin white geometric space-frame drawn in perspective around the figure, cage-like, and a flat dark ellipse for the ground. The umbrella becomes a pale hovering geometric dome. The body and face are smeared, swept and dragged with a loaded brush and rag so the forms twist and slip out of register, motion rendered as smeared distortion and blurred doubling rather than described movement; one part of the face left disconcertingly sharp. Flesh and coat in raw pinks, tan, violet, cream and grey in thick curved sweeping strokes. Raw unprimed linen at the edges. Isolated, existential, no background detail. NEGATIVE: (none)
