3 Graces/Fountains Screen

2012

Charlie Billingham's *3 Graces/Fountains Screen* is an oil on canvas work mounted within a hardwood frame and joined by brass hinges, referencing the classical motif of the Three Graces through a contemporary lens. The piece merges the traditions of fine art painting with decorative furniture, blurring the boundaries between functional object and artwork. Billingham's signature painterly sensibility brings warmth and texture to the composition, while the screen format invites the viewer to consider the work from multiple angles and perspectives.
