About the Artwork

‘Venus and Mars,’ tempera, 1483, replacing the Greek goddesses of love with a forest vanitas

still life and signifiers of a young woman in courtship. The juxtaposition of the artificial and

countryside. ‘I like the idea of the forest animals getting their hands on the contents of someone’s handbag in Chelsea, besides nonmatter who we are in life we all go back to nature eventually, maybe it’s a sort of memento mori.’
