A modern twist on a timeless Northern motif, this work reimagines the classic drum dance with a contemporary flair. Instead of the traditional drum and beater, this figure jams out on a full five-piece drum set, featuring a bass drum with mounted tom-toms and a kick pedal; a snare drum, hi-hats, and two cymbals. A small post on the bass drum even hints at a cowbell, adding a playful touch to this modern interpretation. Seated on his stool, drumsticks in hand, this musician’s intense focus radiates as he immerses himself in the rhythm, fully absorbed in the beat.
First Arts extends our gratitude to Miles Wheeler for his assistance in cataloguing this lot.
