“Wild Life” by Artist Cooper

A new selection of paintings from American artist Cooper (previously featured here). Recently exhibited with Maddox Gallery in Switzerland, “Wild Life” offers reimagined scenes of domesticity infused with new patterns and an expanded colour palette. His still lifes feature a range of objects — vintage record players, speakers, piles of books, plants and mid-century furniture — that represent the joy he finds in the minutiae of the everyday, past memories, and dreams for the future. Check out more images below!
