About this artwork
This is one of his "Distortion Form" paintings. These paintings are inspired by music, and in particular the band the Jesus and Mary Chain. he was influenced by paintings that explored colour such as the works by Monet, Matisse and Jackson Pollock. But he did not just want to recreate these paintings and so began looking at a way of using colour in a more contemporary context.
The Jesus and Mary Chain wrote pretty "Beach Boys" like pop songs but… then covered them with noise and distortion and feedback. In a similar fashion he painted ‘pretty’ colourful paintings and then covered them with black and white "Distortion Forms", a visual metaphor for the noise and distortion used by the Jesus and Mary Chain.
