Toilet Roll Portrait. Each one is unique! A distinctive portrait painted on a flattened, empty toilet roll. Annelies Horden is a Dutch visual artist known for her objects and large-scale installations made from waste materials, including empty toilet rolls. Her philosophy centers on the "apparent" beauty of consumer society; by collecting, sorting, and repeating everyday, valueless materials, she creates new meaning and art. Interestingly, for her, the toilet roll is not merely a cheap alternative to a canvas. The material remains recognizable as a toilet roll, creating a tension between the disposable and the enduring. The material inevitably alludes to intimacy, physicality, consumption, and throwaway culture. This makes a painted portrait on such an object conceptually fascinating! There is only one of each portrait. They look great combined in a group. Includes a hanging system, though the piece can also be displayed leaning against a wall on a small shelf. Dimensions: approx. 7 x 10 cm. Delivery time: Ships in 1 to 3 working days.
