Christopher Wood achieves something remarkable. Colours and abstract marks – moments of paint – coalesce into recognisable instances. These are truths that are seen and felt by the artist and then shared. It might be a breathing sea, a cliff revealing ancient reds, or the smell of scurvy grass as the tide recedes – all made more powerful by the poetic language of abstraction.

These latest twenty paintings reveal Christopher Wood to be an artist in full power. They are works that endure well beyond the first gaze. They are paintings that sing an ancient song.
