About this artwork
This abstract screen print is constructed from repeated use of a simple stencil. The stencil comes from packaging on a roll of multi-purpose masking tape and the title of this work comes from the shape itself. Richard Peacock improvised the composition step by step and colour by colour. The stencil is repeated 30 times and as the composition evolved, so the white shapes between the shapes became more visually active.

« My printmaking combines elements of pop art, minimalism, and abstraction. »
Richard Peacock is a painter and printmaker based in the U.K. who has exhibited his artworks in London. While he loves abstract art, Peacock's compositions contain numerous links to the world we live in. He often uses recycled materials in his work, including discarded packaging as stencils for screen prints and builders cable drums for woodcuts. Colour, repetition, and variation are all key elements in his artistic expression.
