Cycle of Violence
AU$120.00 Read MoreAdd to cartGrayson Perry
London: Atlas Press, 2002.“When I was 12 or 13 I drew a series of short comic strip adventures featuring an idealised male hero. When puberty hit me these boy’s own tales became increasingly kinky, involving much cross-dressing and bondage. Sadly these reports from my young subconscious were lost in the upheavals of adolescence. Twenty years later I drew Cycle of Violence while facing up to becoming a father myself, and once again my imagination became an open wound.” (artist’s statement). Limited to 1,200 numbered copies.
