The Queen in the acclaimed “Rope Skulls” series is a bold blend of aerosol, acrylic, silver leaf, and epoxy resin set into an ornate and impressive frame.
Hans painted this as the second work in his series of three and chose a softer palette of blues and pinks to align with the Queen aesthetic and skull pose.
This work is painted on deep stretched canvas and features the main subject (the Queen’s skull) created out of ropes, overlapping one another, and reminiscent of underlying human muscle. Both the teeth and the Queen’s crown are silver leaf that catches the light strikingly from certain angles, and the entire piece is encased in high-gloss epoxy resin to give it a wavy glass-like finish. This surface give the work an added textural element and increases the contrast of the bold black outlines.
Framed exceptionally and ready to hang.
