KURT COBAIN: VINYL RECORDS (One-Off)

A powerful one-off portrait that captures the vulnerability and intensity of one of music’s most influential figures. Constructed entirely from broken vinyl records, the work carries an added resonance - the physical remnants of music reassembled to portray an artist who reshaped it.

Chapman builds Cobain’s likeness through layered fragments, using shifts in tone and colour to convey mood rather than polish. The fractured surface mirrors the emotional complexity of the subject, with sharp contrasts around the eyes and softer transitions across the face creating a sense of introspection and quiet unrest.

Both tribute and transformation, this piece translates the raw energy of Cobain’s legacy into a tactile, contemporary form - a portrait that feels as honest and uncompromising as the artist himself.

Material:  Broken Vinyl Records
