‘Cradle’ plays with ideas of care, love and guardianship within the trope of the Madonna and Child. The pastel skies contrast with the hard and cold surface of the aluminium panel. The tufts of hair in the man’s fist cast doubt on his intentions towards the child. Then again, how many Madonnas throughout art history share a look of dubious affection for their disconcerting offspring?
