About The Artwork
Description: Its apparent this painting is of two halves and that there is dichotomy between the working class and lower middle class who in effect are illuding to middle class-ness. The house on the left demonstrates the aspirational with an expendable income for house improvements which increase its property value. Where as the house on the right is on the contrary showing signs of decline either by neglect or impoverishment. The irony in this is the heterogeneous combination is inextricably tied by the very fabric of the building. Optimism shines over the aspirants and gloom and a foreboding storm over the other.

1972 Born Bournemouth Dorset1995 Shelley Park College of Art1999 Cheltenham University2009 Studio LeytonstoneCurrently live and work in London with painting studio in Leytonstone.Using particular sources such as photography and images scoured from the internet including 3d objects has allowed Paul Cummings to construct a fallacious realism by using advanced digital processes. The final images are then translated as a perfect facsimile into paintings. His work vacillates between reality and its virtual origins undecidedly never settling for one or the other. This fetishistic flattening of surface suppresses a neurotic anthropological undercurrent that is present within his works. His observations make a subtle pun on societal values but he also sublimates the banal in a precise rarified manner. His work and influences are a derivative of photo-realism and its concurrent movement hyper-realism.
