Artist's Reflections of Architectural Details
Suffolk's Colin Kitchener has always had a passionate interest in the beautiful medieval properties of East Anglia. This fascination has transposed into sourcing reclaimed terracotta peg tiles from reclamation yards, to form the ground for his unique paintings.
Each piece is an original work featuring architectural details.
Some tiles are centuries old and often bear the original craftsman’s finger print adding to the narrative. Colin paints in harmony with the individual character of the rugged texture, brought about during the firing process and then exposure to the elements, choosing to let the tile direct the details.
Each tile has its own story..
We are delighted to welcome Colin to our contemporary fold of exceptional artists
