Colin (b. 2006) focuses on capturing the spirit of the world surrounding him, transforming everyday moments and objects into resonant, entrancing images. His Acrylic on canvas works invite viewers into subtly rendered, loosely painted worlds that feel like almost forgotten memories. Colin’s works are inspired by surreal compositions, often drawn from old found photographs, photography books, and film. 

In his practice Colin experiments with altering the viscosity of paints to achieve different form and opacity leading to intriguing textures. This bending the boundaries of paint helps the final product allude to a feeling of past and forgetting. For Colin, this eagerness to paint his direct surroundings comes from a personal desire to preserve life and understand death on a deeper level.
