Anthony Iacono, Shrimp Cocktail, 2015

Happy National Relaxation Day to our US readers, a welcome chance for a day of respite no matter where you’re based. What does your idea of R&R resemble? We like this precariously balanced prawn cocktail and accompanying lemon set-up, placed atop a nude recliner, and painted by Anthony Iacono. The New York-based artist’s playful work centres around themes of “fetish and queer culture in relation to mundane nuances of the everyday”, and featured in the Paper Galleries section of Elephant Issue 38.
