Regarding Work | Figure Study Print, The George Files

$17.16
Regarding Work is the fourth plate in The George Files, an ongoing series of figure studies and character portraits by Alexander Paul Burton, working as Tremolo A Tiempo. Drawn in Faber-Castell pencil and Japanese sumi ink, the piece catches its subject mid-bend, shoulders forward, weight over the front foot, the muscles of the back and thigh doing the quiet arithmetic of a body at work. Behind him, a mirror or doorway holds a second view of the same room, as though the labour and the reflection of it are happening at the same time. The handwritten subtitle reads "Labour Vs. Identity". It is the question the plate puts to its subject and, by extension, to anyone who has ever caught themselves in a doorway and wondered whether the work is the person or only the thing the person does to fill the day. A considered piece for readers, collectors of literary art, figure drawing enthusiasts, and anyone drawn to work that carries a narrative inside the image. Printed on demand by Gelato on museum-grade paper, produced fresh to order and shipped from a facility near you.
