Tim Renshaw
An urbanised
geometry gives Tim Renshaw's painting a sign-like presence. The pictures
stage a movement between appearance and deciphering. This encourages
a deliberate play between an experience of visual immediacy and a process
of reading forms.
The works
picture a seemingly depthless space across which a painstaking accumulation
of detail spreads. They are simultaneously flat and screen-like. On
the one hand, colour, line and surface exist as sheer perceptual facts;
on the other, they construct a space which could be read as a stage
for projections.
