About the Item
James McQueen, It Is What It Is, 2025
Mixed Media, Hand Finished
55.9 x 76.2 cm (22 x 30 in)
Hand Signed and Hand Finished by the Artwork.
This work is complete with handwritten quotes, doodles and additions from the artist. This work represents a surprising amount of extra detail for a unique work.
James McQueen’s work has long attracted collectors who appreciate pieces that balance graphic clarity with conceptual bite, and this 2025 mixed-media original is a sharp example of why his market continues to strengthen.
My Name Is Not Alice And We Are Not In Fucking Wonderland presents McQueen’s characteristic blend of nostalgia and disruption. At first glance, the composition nods to the familiar language of vintage book covers and mid-century print design—forms that often appear in his practice. But the illusion of familiarity is quickly undercut by the work’s blunt, unvarnished title. It’s a deliberate refusal of fantasy, an insistence on confronting the real rather than retreating into the whimsical.
The piece is a unique, hand-finished original, signed by the artist, and measures 22 × 30 inches—a versatile scale that holds presence on its own yet integrates easily into a broader collection. As with much of McQueen’s strongest output, the physical surface has a tactile immediacy that rewards close viewing, revealing small decisions and imperfections that situate the work firmly in the realm of the handmade.
Collectors drawn to contemporary works that engage cultural memory, challenge narrative conventions, or blur the line between design and fine art will find substantial value here. The piece carries both aesthetic punch and conceptual clarity, making it an impactful addition for those building portfolios around emerging British artists with increasing institutional and commercial attention.
