Defence of the Inanimate Bed Pan Shit Happens By Antony H Haylock

Antony ‘H’ Haylock knows how to have a little fun with art. His work centres around iconic, inanimate objects which, as he says, contain “the power to evoke an emotion, a memory, a visual time stamp.” H’s prints artfully blend high impact compositional technique with tongue in cheek wit to produce an appealing aesthetic. The ‘Defence of the Inanimate’ series deftly showcases H’s artistic approach, blending pop art themes and styles with fine art skills and a penchant for word play. For ‘Defence of the Inanimate Bed Pan Shit Happens’ H has produced an image of a blue enamel bed pan, chipped and ageing against an off white background, and surrounded by specks and drips of paint. Juxtaposed against the pan’s chic aesthetic, H has scrawled the words ‘Shit Happens!’ across the front, in dark blue paint strokes. Bold, brash and fun, the piece is beautifully executed to maximum impact.
