Alan Rickman New Immortal Painting

In this series of New Immortals, I have painted a the flurry of icons who passed in 2017. I was interested in contrasting the sense of reality they held in either their presenting moment human connections, accentuated by the subjectivist style of painting as if a capturing a fleeting moment of eye contact; compared with the idealism they cast with their celebrity. I was fascinated in depicting these guys on the cusp of being canonised as contemporary Gods, perhaps attempting to remember them as human before they are made into something more and questioning how the two states interact. the dripping and transience of the style reflects the nostalgic transience of their passing, both being ironically contrasted by the sense of permanence they each now hold in both being a painting and being remembered as a legend.
