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. ‘Walkies’ depicts Pop artist Jeff Koons, famed for his giant balloon animal sculptures. Ever alert to satire and parody, Moss paints Koons with a small version of the famous blue balloon dog on a string leash, wearing an enigmatic grin as he peers out of the print. Set against Moss’s signature soft pink background, the image is both comic and iconic, with its bold visual appeal and smart conceptual prowess.
