Meaning & Analysis

In Suzanne Walking, the female figure is wearing nothing but her underwear. Eroticism marks many of Opie’s works and the artist has produced various pieces which depict sexualised images of women who are often undressing or nude. Opie’s most notable collection, This Is Shahnoza, features a woman pole dancing.

Opie is famous for his interest in the mundane and his desire to capture everyday life in his works. Suzanne Walking can be read as a comment on the liberated sexual mores of the 21st century as pornography and erotic adverts had become a normal part of everyday life. Speaking about his depiction of naked or eroticised figures, the artist explains: “I don’t take responsibility for what’s out there, but I use it nonetheless.”

  • Julian Opie, born in 1958, dances through the contemporary art scene with a distinctive digital allure. A trailblazer of the 1980s New British Sculpture movement, Opie's work is a highly stylised blend of Pop Art and minimalism which navigates the intersection of technology and visual expression. From his early experiments with computer-generated art to his iconic portraits and animated installations, Opie's work exudes a captivating simplicity. His signature style, marked by bold lines and reduced forms, is internationally recognisable and has made him a key player in British contemporary art.
