Chris Rabbit
With a practice that was rooted in painting Chris Rabbit's practice has evolved into an exploration of the spaces between sculpture and painting. Aiming to champion the sculptural potentiality of painting and highlight the value of paintings as objects rather than solely images. We live in a world flooded with images and on a daily basis we passively experience thousands of images and artworks, the work therefore tries to highlight the material nature of painting, the physical presence of an artwork.
Within this overarching theme he explores the power of images and abstraction and how they interplay to attach context to each other. The images and themes present in this further exploration in many ways represent personal issues of identity sexuality and masculinity.
