'Cornucopia Galactica' by Michael Craig-Martin in collaboration with Daniel Jackson of AVCO was displayed during the month of July 2020 on the 3 storey video wall of the fashion store Flannels on Oxford Street.
AVCO worked on the animated sequencing of the fruit and vegetables.
Normally I only draw images of ordinary mass-produced objects, everything from safety pins to shoes and chairs, from books to mobile phones and laptops. During the lockdown the only direct shopping that was possible was for food, and I found myself looking at fruit and vegetables in a new way and began to draw them. This digital work is the result. It is a celebration, a dynamic cornucopia, a galaxy of these great wonders of nature, constantly moving, turning, spinning through an intensely coloured space like planets, satellites, and spaceships. I hope you never look at broccoli the same way again.
Michael Craig-Martin, 2020
