Taken from Lemon's series of framed art prints by South African artist Ronelle Pienaar Jenkin, 'Poking 325' incorporates the themes that are central to the artist's work, namely psychology — our thoughts, behaviour and ways of being in the world. This striking portrait is all the more arresting for the use of stark black pigment on a clean and neutral background — a compelling contrast that only enhances the themes of ridicule, humour, pride, sanctimony, obscenity and irreverence that feature throughout Jenkin's work and this collection.
