Maxwell Heale

Max Heale uses collage, drawing and painting to pursue a deep interest in Aesthetics, psychology and visual sensation to extend vocabulary and experimentation within the expanded field of painting. 


The work on exhibition has been informed by the contemporary imaging of natural history; the high resolution images of natural events that provide a stabilised 'snapshot' of what is actually a dynamic system - an ever changing, evolving environment. The paintings intend to respond to and subvert these frozen moments by restoring flux through painterly means. In attempting to reactivate and distort these environments, a tension exists in the awareness and silence of the painting and the attempt to make noise with them.
