For Michael Craig-Martin, this artwork was inspired by his series of 'rhyme paintings' in which he rhymes a word with a single image, this six-colour screen print features a pink glove overlaid with the word 'love'. The wordplay between 'love' and 'glove' and the simplicity of the rhyme between word and image allows for multiplicity of meaning. It is this opportunity to create meaning and speculate that, says Craig-Martin, 'is one of the best things about any work of art'.
