Building Images with Frances: Artist research for 6 page works

The Wall and Francis Bacon

I am focusing my page works on "The Wall" film by Pink Floyd. I have been inspired by some of the artwork for the film to look at that of Francis Bacon. The picture below is an artwork inspired by the film, the artwork below being the original.



Francis Bacon has artwork very similar to that above. I like his style of painting as I have used it before and I feel that using Bacon as my main artist focus will help me to produce appropriate artworks for my page works.


Another aspect of The Wall where I am reminded of Bacon's work is a part called 'The Trial'. It is an animated 'ragdoll', bare with no features and appears to be naked. It is depicted tumbling through the air and it reminds me of Bacon's paintings of meat.
Here is the link to The Trial:



These are some of the paintings that remind me of the ragdoll, puppet creature from The Trial (seen above).
