Can We All Stop Playing Michael Jackson Songs

£150.00

Banner, Acrylic on Blind Slat, 180 × 13cm, 2024

Minimal in form but sharp in message, this work blends domestic material with cultural critique. It interrupts nostalgia with a hard question - confronting how popular culture often glosses over discomfort for the sake of familiarity. “I am baffled as to why Michael Jackson songs are still played, particularly after seeing the documentary Finding Neverland. I’m interested in the question of how far people will go in separating the artist from their work, and where those limits lie. If Jimmy Savile had sung Billie Jean, would we still be listening to it?” - Cat. A
