Until science finds a cure for our condition, remain medicated, PAULNACHE 2019

Until science finds a cure for our condition, remain medicated, PAULNACHE 2019. PAULNACHE and I had discussed how multipanel paintings could be rearranged and mixed up yet still work as an image. For this show, we brought together 27 canvases to create a giant wall 300cm x 900cm. And what does one do with a wall? Hang pictures on it – so we hung a further 7 paintings on the painting “wall”.

FEATURED EXHIBITION ARTWORKS

15th October 2021

This painting was the centrepiece of Trip Hazard (2021), and marked a fresh approach for me. I sought to put more space into the paintings, to empty out the detail yet retain the surface complexity.

10th September 2021

Small paintings are often more powerful than their size. This painting is a rough and ready combination of scratchy lines and scumbled colours, yet manages a sweetness with its marshmallow pink centre – oh so yummy!

18th June 2021

I don’t usually describe my work as muscular, but the bold, red, calligraphic gesture at the centre of this painting asserts itself unashamedly.

28th May 2021

It is an honour and a pleasure to be the first “proper” artwork bought by first-time collectors.
