A solo exhibition by Steve Williams
My art practice is an exploration of and fascination with expressive mark-making, following in the tradition of gestural abstraction. The common thread underpinning my work is a search for childlike spontaneity and authenticity, honesty and openness. I am intrigued by layers; the surface of things and what lies underneath; there is a continual revealing or obscuring, in which the history of the work, with all its flaws and scars, is laid bare. In this way, my work is about humanity and our experience.
