Algorithmic Oil on Implied Linen · Edition 1 of 1 · Indicatively valued at £10,138.91.
Important, in the way a stain on a ceiling is important.
One approaches “Private Weather VII: With Claims to Importance” as one approaches a stranger's dog: with optimism, and a readiness to be disappointed.
It is the kind of image that rewards prolonged looking with a faint, growing concern.
It will hang in a beautiful apartment, be admired by no one, and discussed by everyone.
