This month I’m bringing you some bathroom accessories. I think that bathroom gadgets are very underrated and often forgotten by artists. Below you can see how several artists coped with this topic.

Make sure to click on each creator name to discover more about them!

Kate Talbot

Kate Talbot is a contemporary artist and satirist. Her work has featured in Vogue magazine and many other commercial and creative publications.  There is a poignant wit to her work that is both moving and provocative.  She draws with thread and wool, creating layers of colour and texture which draw the viewer in.  Her dissection of politics, prejudices, fashions and idiosyncrasies are incisive and at times unapologetically confrontational whilst her representation of the ordinary can often draw out our nostalgic emotions.”

The work below is a commission for Stylist Magazine.
