Hear no Evil by Rob Rek  - is an exquisite example of the photo realistic style with which the artist’s name has become synonymous.
 
This piece is set against a dramatically simplistic ultra white background focusing attention exclusively on the subject - An arrestingly lifelike human skull sporting Bang and Olufsen headphones. 
 
The artists hyperrealist style captures the minute details of in minature scale.  painted as a tryptich this piece bookends the "three designer monkeys" story. 
 
The artwork is a modern adaptation of the ancient Dutch Vanitas style, which invites the viewer to consider their mortality and questions the significance of placing value on worldly objects.
