Poppy Faun
The Chair
Original oil painting | Retro-surrealism
The Chair is a quietly unnerving work in Poppy Faun's retro-surrealist practice — a painting in which a mundane domestic object becomes the focus for a meditation on presence and absence, on the person who was sitting there and is no longer, on the chair as a kind of portrait of its occupant. Faun's technique combines the visual language of mid-century illustration with a surrealist sensibility that finds the uncanny in the ordinary.
The oil painting medium gives the work a material richness and luminosity that her mixed media pieces, for all their textural complexity, cannot fully replicate — the paint building the image with a depth and presence that suits the domestic intimacy of the subject. For collectors in Ascot, Berkshire, Surrey, and London seeking a work of genuine psychological depth, The Chair is one of Faun's most compelling originals.
Available through Creed Gallery, Ascot.
