Small Down Lane Nova blue green and more art by Luke Piper

Motivated by the memory and feeling from painting live in the landscape. They attempt to try and sum up the impression of a place in the mind’s eye. A bit like a psychiatrist’s inky doodles on his or her notepad or the clairvoyant’s tea leaves in a cup - For me they are a telescopic, microscopic and kaleidoscopic perspective exploring our relationship with nature and wilderness in the context of urgent and changing times. They are like planets or moons; at the same time they represent microbiological events such as the infection of a cell by a Nova virus and the consequential effects.
