I'm very happy to share with you my new publication. I've been working with Paul Wright on his new book "Paul Wright: Fifteen Years" published by Thompson Gallery. This is a work of celebration and a reflection of his work with the gallery for nearly two decades.
The work of Paul Wright has a special meaning to me. I was introduced to it at university as part of our curriculum and something in me shifted. It was the first body of work, after I moved to the UK, that pulled me like a magnet in such an incredible way. The vivd movement of colourful brush strokes in his portraits, connecting the viewer through the eyes of the subjects is the sting then pulls me every single time.
It has been an honour and a beautiful learning experience for me to work with Paul since 2013. Moreover, working with him on his book was a dream come true.
The exhibition along with the book include new, old and unseen pieces of Paul's archive and it will be on from 9th to 25th of June 2016.
