My Castle My Rules (Door) (Original Painting)

James McQueen's "My Castle My Rules (Door)" is a mixed media work from 2022 that transforms a vintage door into a canvas, measuring 1821 by 950 millimeters. The artist's use of found materials, specifically a repurposed domestic object, reflects contemporary practice of elevating everyday items into fine art while exploring themes of personal autonomy and domestic space.
