Peaches and Cream<\/em> is composed of purposely imperfect copies of ancient and contemporary architectural features subtly combined with details of works in the Museum\u2019s collection and agglomerated in an extravagant pseudo-ruin.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Aesthetically, this composition of disorderly arranged reproductions incorporates the stages of production and imitates tufa in echo of the neoclassical fa\u00e7ade. An absent stained-glass window\u2019s luminous reflections painted on the surface and floor of this chaotic relic suggest a momentary beauty in the face of time\u2019s incoherent strata. And, in fact, the title, an expression used to describe a perfect situation, ironises on this unstable assembly of architectural fragments that evokes a world in turmoil and in danger.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A painter and multidisciplinary artist, Michaela Sanson-Braun plays humorously and poetically with references to art history and inspirations drawn from popular culture.<\/p>\n\n\n\t<\/div><\/section>\n\t
