About this Edition
Made after Peter Doig’s Alice at Boscoe’s (2014-2023) painting, the artwork embodies many of the captivating formal qualities that occur throughout Doig’s Trinidadian works. In particular, Doig’s use of colour in these works has earnt him comparisons to the likes of Paul Gauguin. This is seen in Alice at Boscoe’s through the saturated oranges and reds of the hammock and brickwork that loudly sing from the picture plane and contrast with the deep greens of the tropical foliage. The brickwork and tiling that dominate the composition are some of Doig’s favoured motifs, appearing in many guises in his work beyond Trinidad, that conspire to transform the mundane in something visually arresting and captivating to the imagination.
