Prescient?
Charming: 'Mostly when I look at the work, when I think about most of the subject matter itโs that bit before the end. Itโs very much that little bit before death โ maybe thatโs what weโre living through? Sounds pretty dark but if we can look at that lightly it makes me feel better.
Charming: 'I think itโs [the idea] that weโll end up going to sweet nothing. If youโre religious you have that hope that thereโs an afterlife. If youโre an existentialist you know youโre going to nothing. I think itโs about coming to terms with either. If you donโt believe thereโs an afterlife, the idea that after we go, there might be no more trouble, only a long sleep โ itโs not a bad thing. Also, in life I think we probably do too much and make too much stuff. It would be nice to do less. I think thereโs something nice about the idea of nothing at all.'
If someone would please post some better images of this one...

Charming Baker "Sweet Nothing" Sotheby's Gallery S2, by Agent Provocateur on Apr 15, 2016 8:13:29 GMT 1, Charming Baker SWEET NOTHING by Royal Disappointment, on Flickr
That's it, the Jealous van of free loveโฆ they were handing out tubed show posters in righteous hemp bags. Amazed mine's lying on the table by me at the moment as it was dragged up to Scream Editions to see some AMAZING Kofe work.
Right, I'm going back to bed.

Charming Baker "Sweet Nothing" Sotheby's Gallery S2, by Matt on Apr 15, 2016 12:42:53 GMT 1, Went in this morning, had a look alone in the gallery for an hour or so.
Absolutely blown away by the works - the brush strokes on the chicks, mimicking the shade / ruffle / texture of newborn feathers is undoubtedly the work of a very talented artist - the wood carving especially in the man / horse piece is beautifully done and adds so much to the pieces - the Nellephant piece is an absolute showstopper, the black background, the faint light on the child - his graphite sketches of various figure are mesmerising. The figures seem so lively and detailed and yet so blunt at the same time. Could look at them for hours
And I could go on and on. Really not to be missed

Charming Baker "Sweet Nothing" Sotheby's Gallery S2, by ABC on Apr 20, 2016 14:02:55 GMT 1, When I went to the Shoreditch Solo show nearly 10 years ago now, there were so many works up for grabs. I had a short window of opportunity to purchase an original panda boy (it had no red spot!!) but the wife just looked at me like I was mad.
Sadly his works have moved out of reach of most which is a shame as his work for me is very original and quirky, something hard to find nowadays. Good luck to him that's all I'd say.
