ABOUT THE ARTWORK

In 'Lift,' the ominous specter of impending danger looms, where a crimson hand tightly clutches a knife in unsettling proximity to the lifeline of an elevator, the possibility of its occupants remaining shrouded in ambiguity. This mechanical conveyance, bearing the potential to transport souls into realms unknown, stands as a harbinger of both transcendence and descent, evoking the profound specter of mortality. Amidst these profound themes, the artwork navigates a paradoxical course, for it relies on a palette of serene and pastel hues, concealing its intensity beneath a veneer of tranquil aesthetics.

Tom engages with an eclectic range of images taken from the everyday, books, art history, and television. By funnelling a broad range of source material onto the canvas, the work oozes ambiguity. Although Tom is extremely selective with his choice of word and image, he combines them in such a way to blur any apparent meaning, allowing for a unique and individual voyage into the deep void created by the multitude of layers of paint and newspaper on the canvas. Tom’s work orbits around anti-capitalist themes as his bombastic brush strokes become an expression of detest towards powers of corruption. Tom’s work is a protest against the spiritually depraved world we live in and aims to sustain and invigorate the culture of art he is so infatuated by. Tom is a London-based artist who is a graduate from the University of Brighton and is currently studying a masters at UAL: Camberwell.
