AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Title: Double Speak 1(Original Work)
Artist: Jonathan Wain
Medium: Mixed Media (Spray Paint, Stencil, Acrylic, and Marker) on 200gm Canson Paper
Style: Urban Visual Culture / Neo-Expressionism / Outsider Art
Offered is a vibrant and provocative original work by the contemporary artist Jonathan Wain. Titled "Double Speak 1", this piece utilizes a multi-layered approach, combining the gestural freedom of acrylic painting with the sharp, industrial precision of spray-painted stencils.
The composition features two stacked sets of stylized lips, one in a fiery, saturated red and the other in a pungent, acidic yellow. The repetition of the motif, paired with the aggressive "teeth" detail, serves as a visual metaphor for the duality and noise of modern communication. The background is a masterclass in texture, featuring a scumbled, "distressed wall" aesthetic achieved through thick acrylic application and palette knife techniques, echoing the weathered facades of urban environments.
Year: 2022
Total Size: 50 x 65 cm
Signature: Signed and dated "JW 22" on the lower right-hand corner.
Framing Suggestion: The artist recommends framing this piece under glass or Perspex to preserve the paper and the vibrancy of the acrylics.
Shipping: To ensure the artwork arrives in perfect condition, it will be shipped rolled in a heavy-duty protective tube.
Provenance: Directly acquired from the artist's studio.
A Certificate of Authenticity (COA) signed by Jonathan Wain will be included.
Shipped with tracked and signed service.
Frame not included
Jonathan Wain is a contemporary British artist based in Spain whose work combines influences from street art, graffiti, pop art and abstract expressionism. Originally trained in Fine Art Sculpture at Manchester Metropolitan University between 1993 and 1996, he later turned his focus to painting, developing a distinctive visual language rooted in layered imagery and expressive mark-making.
Working primarily with acrylic and spray paint, Wain creates vivid, multi-layered compositions that often explore themes of myth, memory, conflict and transformation. His paintings blend spontaneous gesture with symbolic imagery, producing works that feel both playful and psychologically charged.
