About this artwork
High in the Himalayan hills above Mcleod Ganj, home to the Dalai Lama, the trees and landscape are strewn with thousands of prayer flags. As you gaze up through them to the blue sky and snow covered mountains beyond they fly and dance fracturing the image beyond into a swirling vortex of colour and texture.
I wanted to create a painting that contained the energy of the landscape there. Fresh and full of vitality, layered and textured. I tried… to paint the final image in one all over attack lasting a full day, late into the evening ,in order not to allow that energy to dissipate.
The flags are hung to send off the prayers into the world beyond and I would like to think this painting contains some of the spiritual qualities of that sacred place.

Marcus Hodge works primarily in oil, drawing from classical training in Spain and deep inspiration from India. His technique is vibrant and sculptural, with bold textures, abstract forms, and direct, minimal language, using unconventional tools to introduce risk and vitality. He seeks to balance energy and stillness, inviting instinctive responses while exploring the universal threads connecting humanity. Each piece radiates hope, faith and a profound sense of shared experience, urging viewers to embrace the unexpected and fostering unity in an increasingly divided world.
