Easy Listener – Me Time
Artist: Nick Veasey
Nick Veasey’s Easy Listener – Me Time captures a figure sunk deep into a chair between two large speakers, hands behind his head, utterly at ease in a private world of sound. Veasey renders the scene in cool blue tones, the X-ray revealing the relaxed skeleton within the casual pose, the body completely surrendered to the music washing over it from either side.
The piece is a portrait of solitude as luxury. Easy Listener – Me Time celebrates that increasingly rare thing, the deliberate retreat into oneself, the deliberate choice to do nothing but listen. By stripping the figure to bone, Veasey reminds us how physical that pleasure really is, felt in the frame as much as the ears, and how much we need these unguarded moments of stillness. It is a quiet ode to switching off, finding in one man’s reverie something close to a small act of self-preservation.
Rendered with Veasey’s characteristic clarity, the figure, the chair and the speakers read together in a single luminous layer. The piece is a natural fit for a listening room, media space or contemporary interior, and speaks to collectors who love music, design and the wit of seeing the familiar laid bare. Blending science, photography and fine art, Easy Listener – Me Time is produced as a strictly limited edition.
