'Once had my work described as, “Both seductive and sort of startling” which I agree with. Although my work is sexualised and often depicts lavish scenes there is a darker side to it.' Sarabande's TrinoVerkade interviews artist AliceBloomfield.
I once had my work described as, “Both seductive and sort of startling” which I agree with. Although my work is sexualised and often depicts lavish scenes there is a darker side to it. I’m fascinated with the contrast between wealth and darkness, for example a drug lord living a life of luxury while victims of his business suffer or a rich girl who seems perfect on the surface but is unhappy and fighting inner turmoil.
Another example of this stylistic approach is MTV’s ‘Aeon Flux’ cartoon from the 90’s which follows a sinewy heroin, clad in black bondage gear. There is something otherworldly and unsettling about her character, this mixed with the show’s surreal imagery is something that has really influenced my art and my interest in creating my own narrative world.
