The Haystack series highlights the role seriality has had in past creations, while also proving its significance for contemporary artistic exploration. The static and flat quality of Lichtenstein’s Ben Day dots stand in stark contrast to Impressionism’s aim to evoke a feeling of movement, conveying a distinctly modernist perspective.
Ultimately, the Haystacks primarily ridicule the convention dictating that mechanical reproduction stands in opposition to originality. The schematic forms and bright colours characterising the prints in this series seek to redefine the authenticity attributed to their source material.
