Jim Lambie's iconic Found Flowers Painting

You loved the way Lambie's Zobop Fluoro, 2004 amped out the entry space of MOMA for that epic "Color Chart: Reinventing Color" exhibit and the "Found Flowers" series which featured iconic pop stars like George Micheal and Grace Jones swaddled in high chromatic flowers, has been a massive cult influence for a certain body of Belgian fashion designers (check the Raf Simons inspiration board).

As such this contemporary artist has a very acute understanding of the function of fantasy in activating pop culture glamour. As a reference point for art directors of all ilk , this work reminds you that a great visual stylist can express an emotion of joy in lushly visual terms.

Here is the artist's description of his process:
