Ben Allen is a contemporary artist, known for his distinctive Pop paintings. Using complex collage techniques, his pieces create a dynamic mash up of popular culture, which work to critique the banal and the mundane, and challenge media views on sexuality.‘Electric Ladyland Supersize’ is a rerelease of one of Allen’s most popular limited edition prints, recreated on a larger scale for high impact. The print is full of erotic appeal, depicting a seductive woman, posing in black lingerie. Yet the primary focus is on the bright red bricolage that Allen has created, which forms the background but also spills onto the central image, overlaying sections of the woman’s body for a dynamic, rich and textured effect.
