Nanako Kono, Expiring Luck,, 2025
Acrylic paint, color pencil, acrylic sheet on wood panel
38 × 24 × 26 inches
Two-paneled, sculptural painting, presented on the floor, with one panel flat on floor and the second panel rests perpendicularly atop. The top panel has an orange laser cut plexi sheet hinged to it and painting on plexiglass depicting a pair of hands slicing the words "luck out" on a kitchen cutting board. The bottom panel is a painting of the word "luck" in bright colors, rendered a la a mid-century era road sign, with tromp-l'oeil renderings of receipts superimposed over the text.
