Trafford Parsons’ extraordinary & long-spanning career has made its mark on the art world. Avowedly anti-establishment, Parsons work mines popular culture, from B movies to B sides, & brings an energetic street-art aesthetic to the familiar icons that haunt his work. Fusing the figurative with the abstract, ‘ Dark Knight
- Blue’ depicts the cowled face of Batman in profile, composed in shades of black & electric blue & set against a swirling, deco pattern. Jarring the two aesthetics
- the brooding superhero with the floral decoration
- Trafford creates a beautifully off-beat print, confounding our expectations of the comic book character with strong visual acuity.
