About The Artwork

This piece is part of a series called 'Escape!' that is a portrayal of the longing to escape the constrictions of the modern world, or a journey of evading the tolls of modern life. The stick figure is a representation of the human, void of class, gender, and race, to become a symbol of the ‘hero’, running from the confines of the painting. Each piece represents part of the journey, telling a story of the road to independence. The series intends on offering a positive representation on free will and the ability to create one’s own fate. Multiple paintings were necessary in doing justice to this grandiose theme. Typically, the theme of my work is more ambiguous, allowing for a multitude of interpretations. The dice in 'Roll the Dice' represents the luck or chance of escaping. In this part of the journey, I was trying to suggest that one creates their own luck by taking the initial chance. With enough dedication and persistence, escaping can be achieved.

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.
