Marc Quinn — Yellow Chrome Hallucination
Marc Quinn

Yellow Chrome Hallucination

A vivid and opulent composition by Marc Quinn, *Yellow Chrome Hallucination* combines acrylic, gold leaf, and glitter on panel to create a luminous, intensely saturated surface that blurs the boundary between painting and object. The addition of a gilt bronze flower introduces a three-dimensional, sculptural element that elevates the work into a meditation on beauty, artificiality, and desire. Encased in Perspex, the piece is simultaneously preserved and theatrically presented, reinforcing Quinn's ongoing exploration of nature, luxury, and the seductive power of material excess.
