Meaning & Analysis

Kiera Gets Undressed, a lambda print on lenticular acrylic panel, was released in an edition of 25 in 2014 by British artist Julian Opie. The protagonist, Kiera, is nude, with the shadow of underwear visible. The use of thick black lines to outline the figure is typical of Opie’s work, becoming a stylistic trademark for the artist.

Opie’s work is an essay on the magic of perception and mystery of other people, as they remain unknowable with just a circle representing the face, all other identifiable features omitted. Additionally, in a blend of Pop Art and Minimalism, Opie’s abstract, flattened style seems in the first instance distant and cold.

Julian Opie, born in 1958, dances through the contemporary art scene with a distinctive digital allure. A trailblazer of the 1980s New British Sculpture movement, Opie's work is a highly stylised blend of Pop Art and minimalism which navigates the intersection of technology and visual expression. From his early experiments with computer-generated art to his iconic portraits and animated installations, Opie's work exudes a captivating simplicity. His signature style, marked by bold lines and reduced forms, is internationally recognisable and has made him a key player in British contemporary art.

Selling my Invader Kit through MyArtBroker was so much easier than I expected, with the price I got being more than I anticipated. That is down to Celine & Helena who were so professional, helpful and supportive throughout the whole process. I will definitely use them again when the need arises.
