ABOUT THE ARTWORK

This artwork combines abstract and representational elements in a bold, expressive style. The piece features vibrant, chaotic textures in the background, with heavy brushstrokes of red, orange, and yellow forming an energetic, flame-like pattern that surrounds two central figures. On the left, a pigeon is rendered in a semi-abstract form, with stark black and white colors contrasting against the bright background. The bird's presence feels ominous, as it is positioned next to a shadowy, human-like figure on the right. The figure holds an X-ray of lungs, adding a medical or introspective theme to the piece. The word "X-RAY" is painted at the bottom in thick, bold letters, further emphasizing the theme. The use of fluorescent yellow outlines adds a dynamic and slightly chaotic energy, while the overall color palette is earthy yet intense. The painting suggests themes of examination, mortality, or the contrast between life (the bird) and the inner workings of the body (the X-ray). The juxtaposition of these elements creates an evocative, layered narrative open to interpretation.

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.
