A set of vintage playing cards, painted wood and acrylic crystals arranged on painted canvas with a cut three-dimensional element. The work is mounted behind glass within a white, wooden frame.

This deck of playing cards was discovered at a car boot sale in South London. The cards have been laid in a grid-like formation, cut in half and then raised from the background. Each card has multiple Swarovski crystals placed within the floral design and alternates in colour between light blue and black. 

The arrangement takes the form of a collection of butterflies that have come together in a tight formation. The centrally placed painted strip of wood represents the body of the butterfly and the cards themselves act as the wings. 

This piece is part of a series of works featuring vintage playing cards.

Adam Robinson is an emerging artist who was born and raised in Sydney and has been living and working in London for the past 18 years. Robinson’s work reflects his passion for colour, found materials and the processes of collecting and arranging. He draws inspiration from a wide variety of sources with architecture and the built environment being particularly influential. The found and sometimes forgotten materials he uses, with their strong sense of nostalgia and history, are a further source of inspiration and fascination to him. He aims to transform these objects such that they exist in a more contemporary and ordered context and with a clean, vibrant and geometric aesthetic. He also enjoys the emotional response that colour and repetition can bring and the notion that once the materials are altered, rearranged and framed they are perceived in an altogether different way. Since graduating in Australia with a degree in Theatre Design he has worked primarily in television as an Art Director but now focuses on his art practice. Adam Robinson has exhibited in numerous exhibitions and art fairs both in London and New York and has been highlighted by Rebecca Wilson, chief curator at Saatchi Art, as One to Watch.
