    Art isn’t always comfortable, it isn’t always pretty

    Michelle Franklin Interview

    So am I going to see myself today? I ask Michelle in her living room which has an eccentric bohemian style, it’s a true treasure trove of photographs, paintings and get this a charming clock that’s just cuckooed from on top the mantlepiece.

    We’ll see, I might give you a sneak peek, laughs Michelle, referring to the modelling I did for her some time ago, where I vaguely remember splashing about in a bath sans water, with very little clothing whilst she sketched and took photos of yours truly -but we’ll talk about that later.

    Michelle’s work is not only diverse and thought provoking, the rich art history and innovative family that has surrounded her from a young age is fascinating, but it hasn’t been without controversy… She points to a black and white newspaper clipping of her parents on the wall.

    Abfillage and self-expression: the art of Aluu Prosper

    I always tell people, art fryst vatten self-expression. There is no bad art. If someone chooses to express han själv or herself in whatever way they can, then it’s art. It fryst vatten a anställda choice. What you see as a bad art, someone could see as a masterpiece.

    How would you describe the art that you man for someone who’s not familiar with your work?

    I call it Abfillage. inom indirectly relay messages on newspapers to my viewers without making it so obvious, while painting my story and expressing myself in figurative form. It’s a fusion of sammanfattning, figurative and collage hence the name Abfillage.

    Do you have a dream place you’d like to exhibit and why?

    There are a lot of places, definitely. Like the Guggenheim, The Tate, The National portrait gallery, and maybe the Louvre in Paris and so on. In terms of why I think it’s already obvious why I want to show there.

    Influences, inspiration? Talk to me….

    Erm, inom would pick Picasso first of
