Jentje Knuppe is an artist based in London and London itself has been directly incorporated into Knuppe's own artistic output. Popular sites of interest and tourist locations such as Tower Bridge and the Shard become compositional elements, valued for their striking silhouettes. Knuppe engages us and draws us into each work through recognition, playing with the relationship between figure and ground. The recognised object is in one work filled with empty space, whereas in another, it is composed of the city itself, as rich textural effect.
