The Memory Remains II

Size: 82 cm x 66 cm

The Memory Remains II by Mark Davies is from his 2019 collection ‘Retrospective’.

Mark says ” Nothing like a bit of pressure with this one! Without doubt the most requested sequel to one of my earlier works so even though I always knew what I would do it certainly added something to the process. ‘The Memory Remains’ focused on an intriguing, classic toy shop – a million miles away from how we shop for our kids nowadays. So, what we see in the follow up is the inside of the toy shop, a nostalgic feast of pretty much every toy that you can think back to owning or wanting to own. The room is full to bursting with classic games, toys and sweets in the hope that I have created the ultimate shrine to our childhood playtime.  This is without doubt the most intensive piece that I have created to date, with in excess of one hundred hours going into the scene. There are subtle qualities that link visually with the first piece in terms of composition and I am keen to see if you spot them. ”
