2017 ARCHIVAL PIGMENT PRINT ON HAHNEMUHLE PHOTO RAG 308GSM 120 X 150 CM EDITION / 5 Beautifully reproduced from Jane's intricate green Biro drawing Hiroshima Unicorn. This artwork was inspired by wartime pinup posters Hiroshima Unicorn is one of a series of layered drawings, which form part of a body of work which also includes tattooed sculptures, entitled War. This green Biro drawing is a prequel to a work in progress exploring the atomic bombing of Hiroshima in World War II. Intended as a reflective piece, Hiroshima Unicorn presents a mythological universe with hallowed creatures of the land, sea and sky in a verdant Japan before Hiroshima became the first city to experience nuclear warfare. This artwork also explores ‘remembrance’ before war and our insight into the unavoidable consequences of war, including destruction not only of humans and animals, but the environment. Jane's meticulous drawings take several months to research and make. Sumptuous signed and numbered limited edition archival pigment print, made by one of the very best printmakers in the industry.
