Abstract
An exhibition examining the work of Simon J Harris, Steven MacIver, Henrietta Dubrey and Mark Beattie, making connections across the fields of painting and sculpture. Simon J Harris paintings have a cinematic presence and are concerned with the idea of abstraction and place emphasis on interaction between the viewer and the surface of the artwork. Having recently completed his PhD in Fine Art Practice to high critical acclaim, Simon has thrown himself into an extraordinarily refined approach to his artistic practice. Working with intensely pigmented layers of oil on fine linen, he 'traps' the image in between the layers of the paint, creating a sumptuous high-gloss finish just like a piece of celluloid film. His paintings are large-scale with a potent, awe-inspiring presence.
