Adam Crowley

My work manipulates the picture plane, leaving parts unpainted or unprimed. By fracturing the pictorial surface my paintings inhabit two disparate modes of being, namely objecthood and painterly illusion. Cropping the image enhances the minuteness of the moment, a quick glance at a moment in time as it begins to dissipate. I also paint still … Continued

Alexander Wilson

I use fighting forces between ideas and formal elements to birth an image.
