This is a recent study from a series I have been working on for the past year called Indebted. The series is a look into the contributions we get from who's around us during the progression of our lives. Either it be from loved ones or total strangers. This portraiture is the result of working on this body of work. During this process I kept seeing this image in my head while out at my workshop. Not far from burial site of the head of this bison. This vision of my father's body with the bison's head keeps repeating in my head. I spent the past few weeks reproducing this hallucination into a still image and it is a product of my current unsettlement.

Study of the U.S. Institutes (SUSIs) for Scholars is a post-graduate level academic program for mid-career foreign scholars, faculty, practitioners, and secondary educators whose purpose is to strengthen curricula and to improve the teaching about the United States in academic institutions abroad. SUSIs for Scholars are six-weeks long. These Institutes are comprised of a four to five-week academic residency and a one to two-week educational study tour to a different region of the United States. During the Institutes, scholars engage in rigorous academic coursework and panel discussions, interact and establish networks with American scholars, meet with experts in respective disciplines, visit civic institutions, and in some cases, participate in research symposia and conferences.

Sheree came over to borrow some gear-sleeping bag, boots, and a jacket-for a trip to New Hampshire this weekend. I'm always up for spending time with this awesome young woman. And not just because I want to get away from my work!
Three Studies for Portrait of Lucian Freud, 1965
Francis Bacon
Oil paint on canvas
This work shows the artistic dialogue between British painters Francis Bacon and Lucian Freud. While their visual styles differed, both were interested in the human figure and sat for each other on multiple occasions. Bacon painted Freud 14 times from 1964–1971, working from photographs rather than real life. Intimate knowledge of the sitter was also essential. ‘What I want to do is to distort the thing far beyond the appearance, but in the distortion to bring it back to a recording of the appearance’, Bacon said. His portraits powerfully convey the complexities of the human psyche.*
Tensions
While photographers grapple with the mechanics of the camera, painters continue to work with the surface of the canvas and the texture of paint. They often want to explore the material possibilities of the medium as well as the painted image itself. The artists in this room harness the expressive power of painterly materials and techniques. They create layered compositions which privilege abstract sensations over depictions of reality.
In Francis Bacon’s work every brushstroke is emotionally charged. He approaches the act of painting as an assault upon the human form, creating images of a complex and tormented inner self. Similarly, Paula Rego’s painterly technique forcefully expresses the violence of her subject matter.
Breaking down the human figure, Cecily Brown asks questions about how paint can convey the essence of bodies or figures. Can the texture of paint itself transmit the rawness and vibrancy of human flesh? Can painted images, as Bacon, Marwan and George Condo suggest, embody the multiple, fractured facets of the mind? Turning the canvas upside down and upsetting the visual order, Georg Baselitz asks that we look closer, not at the figures but at the painted surface instead. Material, expressive painting such as this resists the precision of the mechanical eye and a world increasingly filled with photographic imagery.*

Capturing The Moment
(June 2023 – April 2024)
The arrival of photography changed the course of painting forever. In this unique exhibition, we explore the dynamic relationship between the two mediums through some of the most iconic artworks of recent times.
From the expressive paintings of Pablo Picasso and Paula Rego, to striking photographs by Hiroshi Sugimoto and Jeff Wall, you will see how these two distinct mediums have shaped each other over time.
You will also discover how artists have blurred the boundaries between painting and photography, creating new and exciting forms of art, such as Pauline Boty's pop paintings, Andy Warhol’s silkscreen prints, the photorealist works of Gerhard Richter, or Andreas Gursky's large-scale panoramic photographs.
In an open-ended conversation between some of the greatest painters and photographers of the modern era, we explore how the brush and the lens have been used to capture moments in time.
Through a selection of modern and contemporary art, Capturing the Moment explores the relationship between the brush and the lens, and how artists have turned to painting and photography to capture moments in time. Rather than attempt a definitive account of the dialogue between the two media, an open-ended discussion is encouraged through varying depictions of people and place that invite us on a journey through recent art history.

The paint brushes and pencils are cocktail sticks that I shaped with a craft knife to make into pencil and brush shapes and then coloured with felt tips. The black pen pots are pieces of card glued into a circle and the pens glued into the pots. The playing cards I think were a printable in a magazine. In the background the basket of papers are just colourful bits out of magazine folded into shape.
