Artist Statement:
English painter with the
english landscape tradition,
Turner, the Camden School and
the influence of Rothko in his
wake, Wayne Sleeth is
installed since 2001 in France
with a cross-channel
reputation for his work.
His approach is coloured by
the open spaces and
horizontality particular to
both sides of 'La Manche', of
maternal Flanders and paternal
Lincolnshire. In the artist's
own words, these works are
'scapes', neither particularly
landscapes not seascapes, nor
marines, but anagrams of
'spaces'. There is almost a
formal dimension to Sleeth's
dealings with what he calls
'synaesthetics of place',
particularly in his
predilection for square
formats, but only the titles
(ocassionally) create
allusions to a specific
location.
