MARK EDWARDS: Finding the House Again

Into the White Woods again. Mark Edwards snowy, homburg-hatted paintings draw us in like the plot of a black-and-white film noir. Who are the figures and what goes on in the house? But they are much more than the B movie narrative. Under the coldness of blues and whites is a warm red. Texture, shadows, trees and trains are characters that draw us back again and again, through carefully planned layers of paint. The real adventure is in paint and Edward’s freedom to create worlds. Welcome to another chapter.
