Framed Death Must Find You Alive To Take You 2019 For Cheap

Magnus Gjoen s evocative work treads a fascinating line between humour and horror. By offering a modern take on old masterpieces, and transforming items typically associated with violence into delicate works of art, Gjoen challenges our preconceived notions of beauty. His work combines Street Art, Pop Art and Fine Art sensibilities, and highlights humanity s capacity for creating immense beauty one minute, and mass destruction the next.

In this piece, two lions lounge in frame. Gjoen presents the regal creatures at rest, almost statue-like with their pattern chosen to depict the appearance of a smattering of moss. The darkness of the piece serves as a reminder not be lured into a false sense of security by beauty, as beauty (and lions) can be deadly.

This giclee print is from a limited edition of 25, signed and numbered by the artist and it comes framed in a 25mm black box frame and Clear Colour glass.
