Contemporary artist Zoe Moss works at the intersection of fine art and photography, to produce a powerful photorealist aesthetic. Her prints focus on the iconic from superhero to celebrity with a humorous twist creating mini narratives and adding off kilter elements, Moss’s work explores the modern day obsession with the cult of the icon in striking form. ‘Game of Phones’ depicts Jon Snow and Tyrion Lannister, lead characters from cult TV series Game of Thrones. In a satirical twist, Moss has replaced weaponry with mobile phones, as Lannister humbly clutches a retro Nokia in the face of Snow’s smart phone. Set against Moss’s signature soft pink background, the image is both comic and iconic, with its bold visual appeal and smart conceptual prowess.
