A Form of Confessional Poetry Painting

Stuart Bush was born in the UK in 1978 and studied at University of Northampton, University of Wolverhampton and Illinois State University. His work has been selected for various shows in the UK and US. The work has been well received by his circle of supporters. Stuart often paints after being inspired from his street photography that embodies existential thoughts of an individual in the city. He experiments with many different techniques often combining painting and drawing utilising various materials from canvas, wood and metal. Stuart intends the viewer to experience his artwork with a physical response of disorientation and rebus by drawing attention to a lyrical tension between fragments of our reality. The work challenges the viewer to look beyond appearance to reconsider the manufactured truth by creating visual metaphors of our instinctive spiritual experience. The decisive moments with shape and forms create a poetic art of space.
