Call Me Anything But Ordinary
The Connor Brothers’ original piece Call Me Anything But Ordinary, measuring 11" x 9", is a tender and ironic sketch that captures their signature blend of elegance and defiance. Rendered in delicate linework and soft pastel tones, the artwork features a stylised female figure with a serene yet mischievous expression. Her gaze is direct, her lips are flushed with magenta, and on her upper arm is a heart-shaped tattoo reading “Kevin,” encircled by leafy vines. Beneath the image, the handwritten title asserts itself in bold red pencil: Call Me Anything But Ordinary, a humorous and poignant declaration of individuality.
This compact drawing embodies the essence of The Connor Brothers' artistic practice, where retro aesthetics meet contemporary cynicism. British artists Mike Snelle and James Golding originally operated under the guise of fictional twin brothers to shield themselves from the vulnerability of public exposure. Their art evolved into a vehicle for personal exploration and cultural critique, examining themes of truth, perception and emotional resilience.
Combining simplicity with satire, this work plays with traditional notions of portraiture and identity. In its small scale lies an oversized statement—an invitation to embrace uniqueness, challenge conformity, and recognise the quiet power of irony. It is as charming as it is clever.
