Joe Machine: NATURE
25 Apr - 31 Aug 2024 At Plaza Premium Lounge Gatwick North Terminal award winning artist Joe Machine Nature celebrates a true love of the United Kingdom. Machine’s distinctive figurative style walks the viewer down paths into ancient woodlands, through fields with flowers in areas of outstanding natural beauty, favourite world heritage sites and national trails, such as Avebury Stones, Coldrum and Silent Valley.
The imagery depicts orchards, cherry blossoms, anemones, bluebells, prowling foxes, march hares, magpies, kingfishers and more. Each picture carefully studies the landscape, flora and fauna, throughout the seasons; autumn, spring, summer and winter.
This exhibition features varying size original acrylic on canvas colour paintings, alongside unique monochrome scraperboards; a form of direct engraving where black India ink is hand scratched to create a fine white china clay line.
“A striking feature of all series .... is that they share an immediately recognizable artistic language. Once you’ve seen a Joe Machine you will have no difficulty in spotting his hand in any other.” Edward Lucie-Smith, The London Magazine, 2021
