Tom Hammick: Nightfire
29th September - 13th November 2020

 

Lyndsey Ingram presents new etchings, woodcuts and paintings by British artist Tom Hammick.

 

Nightfire is a selection of work made within an 18-month period, including the global pandemic. These prints and paintings are connected by a stirring undercurrent that crackles to the surface as vivid outlines and surges across the work in expressive striations of colour. Hammick revisits compositions that have their roots in operatic narratives, poetry, film and literature. He explores what the different mediums of oil paint on canvas, woodcut and etching bring to each new iteration.
