Peter Cham

Moving to France some years ago I was able to exchange the creative profession of accountancy for something more personally imaginative. A long-standing interest in literature - particularly modernist styles of writing - has become one of the main inspirations of my work. Contemporary political culture is a principal theme and, since I now enjoy a rural existence, issues concerning ecology.
My methods have evolved from techniques derived from what in France is called bricolage (cutting, shaping, gouging, for instance), to intricate masking and the image-making potential of clear Perspex.
Beyond the selection of paintings shown here, a more extensive range of my work can be seen at .
