Large Format, Framed: Daren Cook 'Love is Messy, 2022'
Cupid, and the perfect, vivid LOVE is obscured and distressed by thick, ultra-black brush strokes. The message is a simple acknowledgement that true LOVE is inherently imperfect. It's only when we embrace Love's imperfections that we truly grasp the essence of its beauty. LOVE is unstoppable, irrepressible. LOVE conquers all.

A1, framed in white museum standard frame.
Born in England in 1969, a first class graduate of the world renowned Central Saint Martins School of art, Daren has spent much of his career working as a creative director for several global branding agencies. He was responsible for, amongst other things, the design of the iconic Orange telecommunications logo, and still works with high-profile clients around the world.
His sharp branding instinct and graphic sensibilities are reflected in his simple, bold and occasionally provocative work, which playfully explores the role of artists, collectors and a sometimes sceptical public in the current art market. Branding is about providing answers.
Daren’s art asks questions instead.
