About this work

Description

An artwork by Physical Illness Patient 8 - "Henri" which shows a group of painted, coloured shapes. Rita Simon said: "Bodycolour again, but this time the scale is smaller: when painting the inner world, the scale is big, but the outer world is shown as smaller, because there's more to represent and the space is there. Lots of little details."

The quote above has been taken from notes made during conversations between Rita Simon and Wellcome staff, 1995-1997.

The title has been provided by the cataloguer for identification purposes.

Rita Simon classified the artwork as Traditional Massive. She marked it as number 15 in the sequence on the verso.
