Artwork Description:
Size:34 x 52 in.
"So It Goes" by The Connor Brothers is a captivating piece, combining vintage aesthetics with modern, thought-provoking commentary. Measuring 30" x 47", it presents a striking image of a woman with classic Hollywood glamour—blonde curls framing her face, her gaze downcast in a moment of introspection. Draped in a bold red fabric that contrasts sharply with the teal background, she stands as a symbol of beauty intertwined with melancholy.
Overlaid on this nostalgic image is a large, cut-out text that reads, “I tried to drown my sorrows, but the bastards learned how to swim.” This phrase, both darkly humorous and poignantly relatable, reflects the emotional depth The Connor Brothers are known for. Smaller, handwritten text and sketches are scattered around the composition, almost as if the artists were leaving notes and musings directly on the canvas, creating an intimate, layered experience for the viewer.
The Connor Brothers, known for their intriguing blend of pop culture and literature, are not actually brothers but a British artistic duo who began their career by constructing a fictitious backstory. Originally, they posed as American twins who escaped from a controversial religious cult, using this narrative to play with the concept of identity and storytelling. In reality, The Connor Brothers are Mike Snelle and James Golding, whose work often delves into themes of mental health, love, and existential angst, presented with a dark wit that has resonated widely. Their pieces invite viewers to question reality and perception, exploring the blurred lines between fiction and truth.
This artwork is a quintessential example of their style, merging visual beauty with literary references and philosophical musings, evoking both a sense of nostalgia and a questioning of modern ideals. The Connor Brothers continue to be celebrated for their ability to challenge societal norms, making each of their pieces an exploration of the human condition with an unmistakably British wit and poignancy.
