Art project: Lost Corners

Charcoal paintings on canvas inspired by my travels by train and cycle tours around cities, looking for strange spots and special places. I have something with old industrial sites left derelict or used in another context, like Battersea Power station, Tate Modern etc… Some of these artworks have been worked out in acrylic as well.
Below you can have a look at the artworks themselves.

Anonymous station

Anonimous stationMany rural train stations are lookalikes. They have no personality or warmth, just concrete constructions without identity. Yet, they have something, a form of poetry to be discovered yet. View artwork
