About this artwork
This work grew from a legal disclaimer I read years ago on a box of milk stating that the contents plus water were a product that would meet a legal standard for milk. I knew right away that I would have to paint something that parodied those words; a work that would wake us up to the absurd tendency of small minds to take something wholesome and nourishing (like milk, which feeds us first on our entry into life, or art, without which life isn't… worth living) and try to cage it and de-nature it in a prison of laws and standards. It took me a year just to track down the exact words used, then more time to play with them and come up with a unique twist on them, and then paint the result on canvas. I plan many more iterations of this work, with variations on the phrase!
« I aim to directly communicate symbolism to the viewer, bypassing preconceived notions and striking to the heart of the relationship between viewer and artwork, observer and observed. »
Fred Phillips, also known as Parhelion, is a painter based in Barbados whose works highlight the act of creation itself as the ultimate message. He views life as vibrant, filled with riotous energy that is in constant motion, which he embodies in his works through the use of raw colors. For Phillips, a spontaneous demonstration of creativity is the very antithesis of despair. His abstract expressionist works are created using acrylics on canvas.
