Portraying a consumer society, Stuart McAlpine Miller uses his paints with a lose base in order to create a transparent layer to his works with the combination of objects, super heroes, cartoons and women.
The idea behind placing these beautiful, unobtainable stylish women models is to show the far fetched nature of what is deemed to be desirable or idyllic and this is a result from purchasing these must have objects. The artist makes us see how trivial these objects actually are and they lack meaning or substance, truth or reality and this is to be compared to his Disney characters or super heroes.
Developing his work world wide, his intent of shallow celebratory of meaningless objects has proved popular among his collectors with high profile commissions in Hong Kong as well as London.
In 1996, the artist's work was shortlisted for the Provost Award at Kelvingrove Art Galleries and Museums the artist's work continues to prove a successful path, attracting the attention of many globally.
