Description: | Poster paint, gouache and gold dust on paper. Blending aspects of traditional Indian culture and contemporary British life, the style and format of The Singh Twins' works are inspired by Mughal miniature painting. Set within modern Liverpool (the artists' home), 'Wedding "Jange" II' depicts a British Asian wedding, with the groom's family departing on the "jange" or procession, to the bride's house. Interested in the Eastern and Western cultures present in modern Britain, The Singh Twins depict figures of all ages and all nationalities, representing the fusion of traditions in multicultural Britain. | Rights holder: | © Amrit and Rabindra Kaur Singh | Subjects: | bus lawn drinking fish Indian house bicycle domestic interior topography tree woman windscreen ice cream lamp post flower elderly woman vest pavement church aeroplane plate table horseback window staircase spectacles dance car plant cat television can ship horse road 20th century costume girl glass drum baby townscape/cityscape crowd man chips ball pea turban camera aerial chair wedding Coca Cola cloud celebration boy telephone sword river | Temporal: | 1991 | Source: | Government Art Collection | Creator: | The Singh Twins | Identifier: | http://www.gac.culture.gov.uk/work.aspx?... | Go to resource |
