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.
