About Tony Alcock

I was born in Nottingham (UK) in June 1947. My post school art education included a Pre-Dip at Loughborough followed by studying Fine Art / Painting at Leicester Polytechnic. After graduating and producing my 'Light Organ', I enjoyed a couple of years being recognized as an original and practicing artist in the UK. However, I chose to pursue life as a teacher, gaining a PGCE from Bristol University, where I later briefly lectured in Art education.

Circumstances changed and I found myself working as a musician, became a music shop owner and eventually worked in a successful graphics based company, MOGO UK. From 1993, I was able to reactivate my artistic ambitions, identifying myself as AMA, I've always liked the symmetry of my initials. Most all the work on this Artlimes website will have been produced after 1993.

About this Artwork

We are conscious of the phrase, 'The male gaze', which makes reference to the heterosexual male's biological appreciation of an attractive woman. This artist is proud to be such a male.

Given the current 'Cancel Culture' in which we seem to be living, I thought I might try to throw in an observation about this sort of interaction by producing an artwork expressing the reversal of the male and female roles engaged in this situation. In this case, I put myself in the role of feeling objectified by a piercing female gaze.
