Additional Information
Hurvin Anderson has generously produced The Raft, 2026, a limited edition artwork on the occasion of his major solo exhibition at Tate Britain, 26 March – 23 August 2026.
The Raft, 2026, depicts two figures drifting across a colour-drenched waterscape. It is part of a new body of work on the theme of ‘rafting’, compromising four paintings created by Anderson especially for the exhibition. Formed of eight layers, this screenprint demonstrates the atmospheric use of composition and colour seen in Anderson’s paintings. The swirling surface of the water appears to be mirrored in the sky above, creating a dreamlike continuity between the two elements. The scene is inspired by found photographs of 19th century Jamaica, a time of British colonial rule, slavery and abolition. Anderson grafts these found images onto an invented reminiscence from the early 20th century. The courting couple on the raft claim space for themselves within the tropical landscape. Love and leisure become quiet acts of resistance.
Each artwork is signed and numbered by the artist on the front. Prices of the artwork are liable to change. As a limited edition sells out, prices of the artwork are subject to increase and the price will be clearly indicated.
About the Artist
Hurvin Anderson (b. 1965, Birmingham, UK) is one of the most important contemporary painters working today. Anderson's paintings engage with the traditions of landscape painting and the history of abstraction. His pictorial world has been shaped by his background. Born in Birmingham of Jamaican parents, Anderson's paintings draw on the influence of both regions and reflect on his experiences of belonging and diaspora.
