ABOUT THE ARTWORK

In the artwork titled 'ZAP,' the artist employs a recurring motif seen throughout their body of work—a spiral. This symbol is utilized with the intent of drawing the audience into the immersive realm depicted within the painting, ensnaring their attention much like a fish on a hook, symbolized by the prominent line and hook elements within the composition. The inclusion of a castle in the painting is borrowed from Henry Dreyfuss' 'Symbol Sourcebook' and serves as a visual representation of the innermost world within each individual, a personal sanctuary of sorts. The artist's deliberate use of wild and chaotic brush marks within the confines of the castle is a deliberate artistic choice. It is meant to rouse this dormant inner world, giving rise to novel ideas and sensations that might take the viewer by surprise, thereby transforming their experience of the artwork.

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.
