Joe Hesketh Solo Exhibition
7 - 24 May 2009
Private View: Wednesday 6 May, 19.00 - 21.00
A reference to society, hidden meanings and sexual speculations.
My work is a construction of personal experience, colour and shapes, representations of situations, experimentalism and chance. It is a result of being open and effected by most things around, from the past and up to present day. Thinking even while walking, makes things flow from my memory then into my notebooks to form the first image or starting point!
With my paintings I start with a network of lines traced over the first layer on the canvas, then go with the thought and the feelings from when I started the piece to scratch and manipulate the paint mainly using sticks and fingers My aim is to create an energy of colour and to develop rich multi-layered and textural images.
Painting for me, is like writing something down, to capture ideas and remembering, this thought pattern leads me to my video work, I sometimes want to make a situation instead of just an image. So I use moving images to breath life into my work with sound and vision.
