Johnny Depp's new London art exhibition pays tribute to his ex-wife and children

Johnny Depp's new London art exhibition pays tribute to his ex-wife and children

Elsewhere, we see other pieces from that time. The Bunnyman Genesis (2023) is a Donnie Darko-alike set of images, that references a Bunnyman figure that both Depp and his son Jack had experienced in recurring dreams. In Tarot (2024), the piece The Empress paid tribute to Paradis. These are louds works, making use of Rizla papers, explosions of colour and a certain Lynchian unnerving oddness. These feel like fond and protective moments in time but it's also tempting to view them as warnings - of the future, or to himself - but it may just be a sign that often the productive creative periods can come alongside the most settled home lives. Depp fans will find much to dwell on.

Johnny Depp self-portrait to go on sale

A self-portrait by Johnny Depp is among artwork by the actor that is to go on sale. The collection, named Let the Light In, also features a painting of a rose for his daughter, the actress Lily-Rose Depp. Pirates of the Caribbean star Depp created the original works in the early 2000s, during the early years of his relationship with the French singer and actress Vanessa Paradis. The couple lived with their children, Jack and Lily-Rose, at their estate Le Hameau, in the south of France, where he painted the works. The pair announced their split in 2012. Depp said: 'I've been lucky enough to understand through various artists – listening, learning things – the only thing you can really do is add the light to what's there.' Asked about his self-portrait, which is painted in watercolours, Depp said: 'It represents exactly what I was experiencing at the time – very present, just there.' The companion piece is a single rose, entitled A Rose Is a Rose Is a Rose. Depp added: 'When Lily-Rose was a little kiddie, I'd paint her a rose every Valentine's Day. 'On Mother's Day, I'd paint Vanessa some roses. You don't really know where it's going to go, it's all up to chance.' The works, available in a limited edition of 195, are all hand-signed by Depp and can be bought individually or as a set. The paintings follow previous art he has created and sold in recent years. They will go on sale from 8am on July 18, exclusively at and in their 38 nationwide UK galleries.
