About this work
A 2008 oil on board by Patrick Hughes — a unique, one-of-a-kind work. Hand signed and dated on verso by the artist. The work is in excellent condition and includes a Certificate of Authenticity.
Entering a room of Patrick Hughes' reverse perspective paintings is an overwhelming experience. Horizons thrust themselves forward. Vanishing points jut out when they should recede. It is visual anarchy. All the normal rules of perception are broken and our senses are reefing.'We are alone, striving to make sense of all this. Just exactly what is going on? The artist Patrick Hughes has been making work of extraordinary diversity over the past forty years, confounding the expectations of his audience, by turns delighting and intriguing. He is the author of engaging and provocative books on paradox, puns and oxymoron but it is the sheer impact of standing before his vertiginous large paintings, experiencing these bewildering sensations that reminds us that his is a unique vision in the world of contemporary art.
