Description
Sarah Lucas’s work confronts big, unwieldy questions - from sex and mortality to the underlying function of the work of art.
Made from an incongruous range of found objects and materials – cigarettes, concrete, wax – Lucas’s art is imbued with a defiant, base materialism. Her visual language is playfully symbolic, ranging from coarse puns to veiled allusions. Little Man Big Willy (2000) is comically blatant: a penis made from the sheath like form of a nylon sleeping‐bag sits in a metal bucket, crowned with a workman’s hard hat. Lucas celebrates yet also satirizes the stereotype of the macho male and uses words as an important additional raw material – the titles are often as basely embellished as the objects.
