'Holiday' - Richard Healy

‘Holiday’ is Richard Healy’s second solo exhibition, these works emerging whilst studying and working overseas. Healy continues to explore situations and relationships and what it is to be human. Using digital collage as a starting point, Healy re-contextualizes his source material to construct images of people in ambiguous situations, leading the viewer to question.

Healy brings reality and fiction, time and space, onto a single canvas, creating anxiety and uneasiness, challenging preconceptions. The paintings toe the line somewhere between figuration and abstraction, provoking a sinister sense of unease as the figures constantly lead your eyes around the pictures.
