We are delighted to introduce Marcus Hodge to our portfolio of contemporary artists, with a series of exciting abstract compositions on canvas, paper, and board.
Marcus Hodge is a British contemporary artist whose work is known for its vitality and sculptural use of paint. He seeks to evoke an instinctive response in the viewer by using minimal language. Central to his work is the juxtaposition of energy and stillness, where visceral layers of paint interact to reveal a glimpse of what lies beneath.

Different tools such as large spatulas, palette knives and lengths of wood were used to introduce the elements of risk, chance and opportunity. Each painting becomes unique in the artist's search for the unexpected. With a restrained economy of means, the paintings are less about finish as about the process - a process of not knowing, one that may reveal something you weren't looking for. The picture finds itself in the mysterious and compelling process of being painted.
