About The Artwork
This body of work is a candid illustration of some of the workings of the artist’s psyche. Inspired by artists as diverse as Edvard Munch, Jean Dubuffet and Jean Michel Basquiat, the works capture a particular moment in time, a particular state of mind. Painting from the inside out, on advice, to cope with a period of hypermania, allowing his subconscious to dictate what takes place when hands meet materials. Expressionism? Certainly, as the distorted realities make the works expressive of his feelings and thoughts. Art Brut? Powerfully original, they are very raw in aesthetic appearance. Outsider art? Only in that they resist tidy boundaries; that they sit outside the artist’s usual style; that they were made as art therapy by someone suffering from a mental health condition.
