Tomo Campbell, Come Apart, Double Q Gallery
Double Q Gallery presents ‘Come Apart’, the second solo exhibition by British artist Tomo Campbell at the gallery. In this new body of work, Campbell’s compositions seem to dance before the eye, loaded with splintered human figures, sweeping trees, and art historical motifs. They appear fluid. As forms melt into one another, watery bright yellow or chalky pink paint morphs to muted greys and deep blacks. Campbell revels in the process of painting. His canvases are formed through an instinctive way of working, in which characters from previous pieces and imagery found online or within reference books are drawn impulsively from his psyche. All this imbues the paintings with a hazy loss of reality.
