Barnaby Furnas uses watercolour in a way it was never meant
for: rivalling media sensation for the limelight of graphic
seduction. Developing his own subversive world of cartoon
ultra-violence, bizarrely populated by rock stars and Honest
Abe look-a-likes, Furnas uses blood and guts as a means
to flirt with abstraction and design. In Duel, two ex-presidents
blow each other to shreds, simply for the sake of seeing
the beauty of the carnage in slow motion.
