Frida Kahlo, Auxochrome

Frida Kahlo, Auxochrome

Nick Smith is known for his innovative use of the colour swatch, layering these small samples into well known images and icons. For ‘Frida Kahlo, Auxochrome’ Smith deconstructs his own approach in this striking work of contemporary collage.
A grainy photograph of Frida Kahlo, in saturated shades of grass-green and rose-pink, has been bisected down the centre. Where the other half of Kahlo’s face should be, Smith adds a tiny piece of collage: one, single colour swatch in warm pink. A comment on the material processes of art and the cult of the artist genius, ‘Frida Kahlo, Auxochrome’ redefines collage for a twenty-first century audience.
