View from Kenwood Painting

View from Kenwood House 150x100cm Mixed media on canvas 2017 “During the day, the view was often residents blocking the entrance to the estate to stop construction workers gaining access, a protest against Lambeth’s regeneration plans for Brixton which had already seen half of the estate demolished and replaced with private housing. However, in the evening, I used witness the most amazing sunsets from the window of my old bedroom, slash, studio in Brixton” The painting shows a view from the artists former studio space (where the painting was started), on the third floor of Kenwood House, Somerleyton, Brixton. The building has since been demolished and replaced with homes affordable to those on incomes too high to entitle them to social housing, but too low to buy or rent privately. As a result, a new, more affluent demographic have been moving in, whilst many of those born and raised in Brixton and who would like to stay, are finding they have little choice but to move elsewhere.
