Once upon a time in London – Morning, Afternoon, Evening and Night

This series was inspired by an unlikely combination of people - Vincent Van Gogh and Quentin Tarantino. When Mychael first saw the film Once upon a time in Hollywood he was so unsettled by where he thought the film was heading that he almost left the cinema. However, Tarantino created his own more optimistic version of the narrative that rewrote history, and the resulting film is one of Mychael’s favourites.

Mychael thought that this was such a lovely idea that he decided to give the same treatment to the life of Vincent Van Gogh. In his narrative, Vincent, who had spent a very happy time as a young man in London, decided to return here after the artistically glorious but personally disastrous time spent in the south of France. This series shows some anecdotal moments from his life in London in which he has a dog, a girlfriend and an exhibition at the Chelsea Arts Club where of course all his paintings sold.
