| Mark Pearson's works show
a preoccupation with his materials, he utilises
a number of mediums and techniques to cause chemical
reactions which yield highly intricate detail.
The paint is applied without the use of brushes
and is instead poured onto the canvas and then
guided over the surface.
From this process emerges breathtaking imagery
reminiscent of glacial expanses of ice or snow
covered mountain ranges. The paintings remain
abstract in essence, the process making visible
the unseen complexity of the materials and giving
us a wealth of colour and pattern, while the absence
of a constructed perspective within Pearson's
work offers a fresh interpretation with every
viewing.
