Room Based – The Paintings

Merlin Carpenter

Info: These are my reminders to myself about how to do the paintings. Firstly, Room Based is a new art movement invented by Tomas Rydin and Merlin Carpenter. This is the only reminder which is Room Based, and the reminder is to be Room Based. The other two reminders are not Room Based. The second reminder is that the paintings – titled Download – should feature late 90s Tom Ford era graphics, heavily referencing the 70s, in limited colours. Thirdly, the works must not become good or neo-formalist. The painted walls are Room Based paintings. – Merlin Carpenter
