'Tom' was created for the ‘It’s All About Piano’ Festival 2017 at the French Institute in London.
Simon Kirk said in an interview with Celine Gaurier-Joubert for The Discerner magazine:
"I’m drawn to musicians who have compelling life stories. It’s easy to name many artists, writers, poets and musicians where drink has become as important in their mythology as their work. The romantic notion in the Arts that alcohol is a tool to unleash true creativity… has endured, and it’s one I find fascinating. In my work ‘Tom’ the figure sits between a piano and a bottle. Tom Waits makes no secret of his early alcoholism and it’s in this context he gave his thoughts about the nature of creativity."
Framed dimensions of the artwork are: 41 x 35 x 5cms
