  • Hockney No Fire

    David Hockney No Fire

    No Fire (2020) by David Hockney is an iPad painting printed on paper, depicting the fireplace in his seventeenth-century home, La Grande Cour, in Normandy, France. Using the same central motif as in A Bigger Fire, Hockney presents the interior space without the presence of flames. Created during the global pandemic, the work reflects a shift in mood and atmosphere, turning a symbol of warmth into one of absence. Through this restrained composition, Hockney explores themes of stillness, uncertainty, and the emotional resonance of familiar domestic spaces during a period of disruption.

  • About David Hockney No Fire

    In No FireDavid Hockney revisits the fireplace setting but removes the defining element of light and warmth. The beige tiled floor and dark red brick structure remain, visually linking the work to A Bigger Fire, yet the composition is cropped to emphasise the dark, hollow centre. This central void draws the viewer’s attention, creating a stark contrast between the structured surroundings and the blackened interior. The surface appears unsettled, suggesting the remnants of a recently extinguished fire, with ash and residue implied through texture and tone. Unlike the vibrant, comforting energy of its counterpart, No Fire conveys a more subdued and ambiguous mood. The image invites reflection on absence and fragility, resonating with the uncertainty and introspection experienced during the pandemic period.
