Michael Jarvis - solo show

Abstract

The exhibition was held at Everyman Gallery, Chorlton, Manchester between 17-30 September, 2012 The exhibition consisted of 17 paintings, a series based on my study and research into cityscapes. Doorways, windows, arches, gates, streets and waterways are common motifs. The paintings demonstrate a dialogue between structure and organisation on the one hand and fragmentation and disorderliness on the other. For example, some have a grid-like structure while others are more organic and spontaneously made
