"Magical Thinking" is a silkscreen print by British artist Grayson Perry, created in collaboration with Avant Arte to support the Contemporary Art Society (CAS).
The artwork draws inspiration from a painting by Cornelis de Vos at the Wallace Collection in London. Perry reimagines de Vos' unidentified subject, placing them within a composition influenced by traditional Russian lubki—a style of popular print characterized by bold graphics and narratives. The piece is adorned with a constellation of words and symbols, reflecting the concept of 'magical thinking,' which refers to the subjective and mystical ways individuals interpret reality.

Grayson Perry
Winner of the 2003 Turner Prize, Grayson Perry creates ceramics and other objects that explore diverse historical and contemporary themes. Drawn in by the beauty of his pieces, which are covered with sgraffito drawing, handwritten text and transferred photographs, viewers are met with darker subjects and narrative hints to environmental disaster and child abuse. Autobiographical references to the artist's childhood, family, and his transvestite alter ego Claire are intertwined with his political references, creating a challenging conflict between his dark themes and the rich beauty of his works.
