Black Cot & Latex Glove
JAMES, Shani Rhys (b. 1953)
This is a portrait of the artist as a child, set in 1962 when she moved with her family to London from Australia. The kitsch textured wallpaper mimics that of the period, while the bars of the cot give a sense of imprisonment. Shani Rhys-James studied at Loughborough College of Arts and St Martins College of Art in London, where she was taught by Gillian Ayres.
