Defence of the Inanimate Fuck It Bucket 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 a very appealing aesthetic. The ‘Defence of the Inanimate’ series inspired by a childhood book in which inanimate objects come to life deftly showcases H’s artistic approach, blending pop art themes and styles with fine art skills and a penchant for word play. ‘Defence of the Inanimate Fuck It Bucket’ was created as a response to emotional upheaval, visually manifesting the idea that, once in a while, we need to “just need to chuck our problems in the fuck it bucket and move on!” as H himself exclaims. H has produced an image of a beautiful blue and white enamel bucket, chipped and ageing against an off white background. Juxtaposed against the bucket’s chic aesthetic, H has scrawled the words ‘Fuck It!’ in blue, across the front. Bold, brash and fun, the piece is beautifully executed to maximum impact.
