Peter Purcell
Monday the 23rd of April - Saturday 5th of May
Opening: Tuesday 24th April. 4:30 - 7:30pm
"I have a friend who I anticipate conversing with. From an early age, I was mesmerised by this friends stories and fictitious elaborations. His ability to seduce one into believing his tales to be reality is remarkable.
When I look at the work of Peter Purcell I feel lured into the same illusion. I’m joining in a good old yarn with the artist and being taken for a ride around his excitable imagination.
These animated representations are a combination of memorabilia, and the colourful qualities that is Peters fictional (or non) interior narratives.
The pleasure of looking at Purcell’s paintings is that the narrative keeps on playing. Like a good Shakespeare sonnet, it needs iterating to really come to grips with what is actually being said."
