Paul Winstanley – Arcadia

Kerlin Gallery presents a solo exhibition by Paul Winstanley, comprising a new series of paintings titled Arcadia, a continuation of his recent series The Falls, plus the last of his critically acclaimed Veil series, a signature body of work initiated in 1999.

Titled Arcadia, suggesting ‘something ancient being revisited’, this new body of work looks towards early 19th-century paintings of idyllic mountainous landscapes – pictures that have largely lost their significance through the ‘gauze of history’. Seizing upon the more abstract elements of these works, Winstanley revisits the genre from a contemporary standpoint – first ‘degrading’ inkjet prints of the source images, stripping back detail using a process of wax resist, before recreating them as paintings. Through this process of reinvention, the landscapes become spatial encounters – removed from the specificity of place, they instead tune our attention towards atmosphere, presence, and spiritual charge, all while keeping the ‘shadow’ of the original image.

The exhibition runs at Kerlin Gallery from November 29th 2024 until January 16th 2025.
