“Crude Still Life”
ALEXANDER PAIGE – 2022 Black & White Ink Drawing “Crude Still Life”
This crude black & white ink still life drawing of a bottle & fruit was produced effortlessly among family members by Alexander Paige in 2022. This quick drawing shows the freedom & ability to dethatch from the image and the content & the artwork is about the pen & ink hitting the paper itself. Alexander Paige is inspired by commercial pop artist Jean Michelle Basquiat & explores the concept of an image or drawing meaning less & freeing himself of attachment to any one image. “Crude Still Life” as it was created in seconds is exemplary of this detachment to importance of the artwork.
