Sketch for Albert Painting

Sketch for Albert. Pencil on Hahnemuhle Aquarelle mat paper 450 gsm 12” X 9” No spring chicken Albert has spent time in many professions. After stints in managing radio stations and a stint as a highly paid translator in the European Union he returns to his forte: writing and directing plays. He is credited with many firsts in his involvement in Art. His has the need to reach out further, explore deeper and sometimes even risk not being understood. His new work based on a highly provocative play by Sarah Kane ‘ 4.48 Psychosis’ . The play is Kane’s last piece before she committed suicide. Sarah Kane has become synonymous with nudity, with violence, black humour, but you have to transcend that when you’re reading Sarah Kane, in terms of subtext, because she’s not just about that. 4.48 Psychosis, which happens to be her last piece before she died, is in fact a very deep, honest and genuine study of mental disease, almost biographical in a sense. It is an indictment on the tendency of society to marginalise mental disease. Kane tries to use her own sense of deception by the institutions and writes 4.48 Psychosis as a metaphorical swear word against these powers. She does that in a very provocative way.
