About this artwork
This painting is based on a well known deep water lake called 'Roswell Pit', located on the edge of the City of Ely in Cambridgeshire. Peter Corr has used acrylic paint and glazing medium to achieve a sense of rich luminosity and translucency. There are elements of both Surrealism and Impressionism in the depiction of the subject matter and use of overlapping brush-strokes in the expanse of intense blue colour.

« I believe passionately in the power of art to transform both ourselves, the way we think about the world, and the environment in which we live. »
Peter Corr has always been fascinated by the movement towards abstraction and the simplification of subject matter, form, and color. Most of his works occupy a transitional space between figuration and abstraction. Corr always conveys a tension between representational perspective and the canvas as a two-dimensional design. He does not describe a particular place, rather, he is interested in the role played by experiences, events, feelings, as well as the colors and textures that form the visual backdrop of our lives.
