Painter
The painter, Kevin Phillips, from the United Kingdom, is a painter who expresses and clarifies his personal experience within his practice. His paintings are multi-layered, allowing disparate elements the chance to create and suggest new ways forward. A specific quote from Goethe is an appropriate representation of his feelings about his paintings. “The beginning and end of all literary activity is the reproduction of the world that surrounds me by means of the world that is in me, all things being grasped, related, molded and reconstructed in a personal form and original manner.” Phillips’ recent works were made in response to specific places within Cumbria. He says “the unique qualities of the Cumbrian landscape help me to see and think clearly, enabling me to formulate color relationships and structures in order to produce paintings, which I hope touch upon the spirit of the place.”
