Showcased as part of his debut collection with Castle Fine Art, ‘Poor Little Greenie (3)’ sees the artist reflect on his image and identity as ‘Boy George’.

Stripping away any adornments and accessories, we see a powerful image of Boy George’s signature scarman figure, looking wild with scowling brows and a sweet smile. These added facial features represent the characterisation of Boy George and the iconic image the public has come to expect. Featuring the words ‘WE ARE NEVER ALONE’ hand-written in the border, the scarman represents us all, healing the scars of our own emotional wounds and tough experiences. The title is taken from a lyric in Bowie’s track ‘The Jean Genie’, an homage to America’s finest creatives.

Boy George’s extraordinary collection of mixed media original and unique artworks are a sight to behold. Portraying a host of known and unknown icons, they explore themes of identity, transformation and judgement. A true maximalist, no material is off limits, resulting in visual feasts that pour out of the frame.
