Additional Information
The silk scarf pays homage to flag-based artworks Rose Finn-Kelsey made in the 1970s, such as Here is a Gale Warning, 1971 and Power for the People, 1972. At 90 x 60 cm, the silk scarf is both a highly wearable fashion garment, or a beautiful piece of fabric art suitable for framing or hanging. Antoni & Alison describe the scarves as ‘made as souvenirs of Rose’s work’.
Tried Everything is one of two designs Antoni & Alison have made for Tate. In blue, black, and white, a deadpan text speaks of the difficulty of working without recognition:
Tried Everything
Underestimated
No credit
Supercool
Overlooked
Undervalued
Influencer
Antoni & Alison reflected that ‘This happens to creatives all the time, artists who work away, influencing others but rarely getting the credit they’re due…we completely related to this…we are sad Rose isn’t here to see our response and the response and attention of others to her work’.
The large silk scarf is presented in a gift box, also designed by Antoni & Alison. The label on the box (A Vacated Performance) notes the absence of all three artists, and relates to a series of Vacated Performances Finn-Kelcey made in the 1980s. The label proposes that it is the wearer who now completes their performance.
Antoni & Alison is the fashion label of Antoni Burakowski (b.1962) and Alison Roberts (b.1963), launched in 1987 after they met at St Martin's School of Art. A distinctive voice in British fashion, they’ve retained creative control over almost every aspect of their label, including curating and running their own shop in Farringdon. Working with the estate of Rose Finn-Kelcey, they felt an affinity with aspects of her work, particularly their mutual interest in speech and the ambiguities of language.
