YOU LEFT ME POWERLESS (Original)

In this sharply observed photorealist work, Simon Taylor isolates a discarded battery resting among coarse grit and stone. The familiar branding remains visible, yet the object is spent - its purpose exhausted, its energy drained.

Rendered with meticulous precision, every scuff, crease and metallic reflection is captured with forensic clarity. As with much of Taylor’s practice, the ordinary becomes symbolic, inviting a quiet reflection on consumption, depletion and the residue we leave behind.
Medium: Oil and Acrylic Paint on Aluminium
