Playing Cards - Poker.
K ease four kin bit chairs is a painting by Nathan Paddison from the series of playing cards or poker. The series is probably one of the most typical and popular works of art by Nathan Paddison. In each painting, as usual on playing cards, the king or queen is depicted twice. However, in Nathan Paddison’s work, the top half is detailed and precisely executed, whereas the opposite figure is depicted in a crude, distorted, and sometimes angst-ridden manner. Furthermore, in all the paintings from the playing card series, a pun is built into the title. The terms king or queen are not directly designated but by omitting or combining several terms and letters, the word queen / king is phonetically contained when reading the title.
Nathan Paddison
Nathan Paddison, born 1983, is an Australian artist whose works are all based on a sense of fun, self-expression and being himself without fear. He portrays subjects from his past, including his struggle with addiction, as well as pets and animals in his life. Paddison emphasizes color and energy, allowing the canvas to determine where the painting goes. He paints primarily with acrylics, but also uses enamels, pastels, markers, inks, oils, oil pencils.
Nathan’s strong line and approach to palette meld closely with the physicality and urgency in which he works. The impatience and powerful language forming in Nathan’s work is akin to compulsion rather than task.
