A Voyage Across the World
A homage to all-things nautical, the origins of 'Voyager' can perhaps be traced back to Lhouette's personal history and time serving in the British Royal Navy. Having travelled to 21 countries in just 4 years by sea, the opportunity to experience the cultures of the Caribbean, Far East and South America have left a legacy upon the artist and his oeuvre. Enriched with 20th Century cinematic and comic book references, Lhouette entices us to embrace the danger and adventure of the ocean; the chilling mouth of Jaws emerges amongst the distinctive typography of the Creature from the Black Lagoon. A female muse acts a stunning literal and metaphorical reference to the figurehead bust placed at the bow of a ship.
The remarkable original of 'Voyager' has been installed at a sensational property beside the largest private aquarium in the United Kingdom; a dramatic entrance in which both setting and fine art are in perfect harmony. Transformed to edition print, Lhouette has re-imagined the work into a stunning Boutique Edition format; featuring his signature uniquely ripped decoupage paper the surface is finished with glimmering diamond dust.
Lhouette's 'Voyager' is also unveiled as an impressive Deluxe XL Edition, exclusively available at Wyecliffe Galleries. Measuring over 2.1 meters tall, this standout work is ideal for those wishing to acquire a statement piece for a key area of the home. Featuring varying hand painted striped frame, each edition is re-imagined freshly, ensuring that no two works are the same.
The last 12 months has witnessed the artist produce extraordinary works utilising themes ranging from the equestrian genre as well as the global pandemic. Innovating with both his thrilling choice of material as well as his unparalleled application of art and cultural history woven within every composition, Lhouette remains a singular voice in the contemporary art scene.
