Polymer gravure, 56 × 76cm, edition of 20.
Theadora Ballantyne-Way’s imagery is partly informed by electronic club culture and her previous occupation as a VJ (visual jockey), producing collaborative live, visual performances. Working primarily in printmaking and photomontage, her artistic practice is also heavily influenced by the Surrealist movement and the concept of animism - the belief that objects possess a distinct spiritual essence or soul.
This particular work takes a recognisable lemon juicer and transforms it into a speeding, celestial vehicle, reflecting the artist’s interest in the NASA archives which she has spent time researching. Both playful and dystopian, Theadora says that the objects in her images ‘symbolise a beacon of hope in the midst of chaos’.
Please note that there is limited availability of ‘Rocket Man’. The remaining works in the edition will be printed to order; please allow 14 days for despatch.
