In Great Unmixed, Enoc Perez presents a seemingly straightforward subject: a bottle of Bacardi alongside a shot glass, and a glass of ice with a shot of liquor in it. The painting, with its luminous bottles and iridescent glass and ice cubes, almost acts as an advertisement for the liquor. The contrast between the vibrancy of the liquor and the colourless background, however, conveys a certain emptiness, the contrast between fulness and void acting as a metaphor for the appeal of alcohol versus the lived reality of consuming this product in excess. Similarly, the objects central to the composition – the half-empty tall glass, single shot glass, alongside the rum bottle – could indicate loneliness, as they are isolated in an abstract plane, calling viewers to focus only on this composition.
