About the work

Atkin is interested in the echo between the act of drawing and the act of growing. She makes drawings which are not entirely a representation of their original subject but which are more to do with an act of growth onto paper. Each new pencil mark relates to the last in a simulacrum of the growth of leaves or other matter. Every piece has a slightly different type of mark making according to the emerging logic of that drawing. Her work is typically very large but this one, titled Berners Street after the location of the original subject, is made especially to be a miniature.

Auction close and bidder extension

The auction closes at 9pm (BST) Monday 3rd July, however, if a bid is placed in the last two minutes, the auction end time will extend on that lot for an additional two minutes, or until all bidding has ceased. This is called Popcorn Bidding or Bidder Extension and gives all bidders an equal chance of winning.

Bid Increments

£50 increments for bids of £300 – £1,000

£100 increments for bids of £1,000 – £2,000

£250 increments for bids of £2,000 – £5,000

£500 increments for bids of £5,000 plus

Maximum bids

You are more likely to be the winning bidder if at the outset you place a maximum bid i.e. the maximum amount you are willing to pay for the work. Your maximum bid is not visible to other bidders. If another bidder exceeds your maximum bid you will receive an automatic notification. If you have placed a maximum bid the auction site will automatically place bids on your behalf, but only as much is necessary to make sure that you remain the highest bidder, until it reaches your maximum bid. These automatic bids are placed in increments, as shown above.
