Heart of Palms
Obsession manifests itself in various ways. For James Gulliver Hancock, it takes the form of a virtual road trip across the United
States, where the artist happily examines, characterizes, and delights
in the quirkiest qualities of a particular locale. The Australian-born
artist represents particular states from coast to coast by drawing an
object that he felt typified a city or state and pulled his attention
in each place.
Whether you're partial to the college-town of Tallahassee, the
whimsical attractions in Orlando, or the hot Miami nightlife, you'll
find a bit of all your favorite parts of the Sunshine State in James'
cheerful print. James illustrates a forest of big, small, lush, and
lean palm trees—one of Florida's most omnipresent icons—in order to
personify this long and incredibly diverse southerly state. A fun art
piece to relive a vacation or to remember your past or current home,
this hand-pulled one-color silkscreen print brings the spirit of this
sun-drenched state to your very own home. RFK Rives paper. Handmade in
Brooklyn.
