Tim Craighead
The Conversation

2016

About the Item

Tim Craighead’s work is categorized as abstract, though it inhabits a space between objective and non­objective painting. Both serve as a matrix for what are essentially autobiographical works. Craighead is interested in the symbolic potential of the objective world and the possibilities abstraction presents in suggesting the unknown. His mark­-making operates in discreet spatial zones. He listens to the paint, the works aren’t driven self­-consciously, rather they emerge from a more enigmatic, less familiar place.
