What Has Been Comes Not Again (2022) 110cm x 160 cm giclee print on Aquarelle Rag paper Photo Credit @JulesLister An arrangement of hand sewn velvet brains are presented as a still life. Plastic insects infect the scene and an avocado sits in the background. Inspired by Dutch flower paintings the scene depicts Clements’ interest in visceral artificial displays that are autobiographical in nature, beautiful and surreally disturbing.
