Today’s blog is honoring Murray’s appearance in the Wimbledon Men’s Final, I am following the theme of tennis, by posting this Gary Hume’s poster. Also, this post is a part of my paralympics poster series, first post can be found here: the Inspirational Tracey Emin’s poster.
Hume’s poster is considerable more abstract than Emin, therefore its open to the viewer to interpret the image. The official blurb goes: Hume has abstracted elements from an image of a wheelchair- tennis player, combining them with foliage and a soft and subtle colour palette. Yet, this is entirely subjective painting, but how does this image relate to the paralympics? Once context or explanation is given, we can picture it.
