Cuicasolo (Elaine Carr) is a Bristol artist who I have known about for a very long time, but don’t believe I have ever met. She doesn’t paint all that often, or in many spots, but her work is rather iconic and tends to stick around for a long time.
This is a fabulous structural/architectural piece, typical of her work, confusing the eye with depth created through the use of different shades, tricking the eye into seeing something utterly three-dimensional. Simple and very effective and beautifully painted. The technique uses the same kind of shading techniques we see in anamorphic graffiti writing.
