A Fine Find

More 'roadkill' as found upon a stretch of the local double black lines, thus pictorially framed, & with this instance providing a delightfully fine example of the proposed designation 'Readymade Cubism', rearranged as this object is into a compact sequence of overlapping folded planes & also displaying a bold synecdochal fragment of its brand name, that relates well to Cubism's use of text in such forms.
Again, the colour scheme is predominantly monochrome, with the greys of the road surface & painted lines upon it, & the silver & black livery of the object, enlivened with touches of yellow & gold (which itself lends itself to referential comparisons with Braque's & Picasso's Cubism in its 'Analytical-Hermetic' phase, where ochre is habitually combined with the range of greys that constitute the form's rigorously reduced palette.


Note just how the object is positioned upon the painted line, & guided by the lightly scored line within, as though with mathematical precision...


Given such formal qualities, & unusually for the photographed objects, which are mostly left in situ as found, it was decided that, having already performed a pictorial function, this was a find worth keeping for future reference.
