As with Pembroke Studio Interior, in Pembroke Studio With Blue Chairs And Lamp we are presented with a vision of a studio where the perspective has been altered, so that the tables and chairs, and even the floor and the ceiling, have been placed at an unnatural angle. The viewer is left feeling a little seasick as the furniture appears to slide towards them in what appears to be a playful experiment with the multiple viewpoints commonly found in Cubism, as well as Hockney’s own photographic collages. In his attempts to capture how the eye truly sees the world – as opposed to the single angle of the camera lens – in these collages he took multiple photos of the same scene or interior from different angles. Here we can see him trying this in lithography, changing the angle of the floorboards to create a fractured effect. Dating to 1984 the work is one of the earliest of the Moving Focus series and sees him striking a note from which he will carry on to make bold works influenced by Cubism using a bright palette, pushing the medium of lithography to create a varied portfolio that reflects the scope of his oeuvre and talent as a printmaker.
