Henry Woolway
Over the Hills the Sky Delights

2022

About the Item

Signed by the artist Layered and dyed canvas float mounted within a box frame with non reflective glass Henry Woolway’s Over the Hills, The Sky is a striking abstract composition that explores form, texture, and contrast. The piece features a bold geometric division between a deep black lower section and a textured cream upper portion, evoking the silhouette of a landscape against an open sky. The organic creases in the fabric add depth and movement, enhancing the tactile quality of the work. With its minimalist aesthetic and modern framing, this artwork offers a sophisticated balance of structure and abstraction, making it a compelling addition to any contemporary art collection or interior setting. Part of Henry Woolway's 'Sunday Sessions' series Visually taking aesthetics from Scandinavian and European design and culture as well as Early mid century modern design. This tied in with simplistic and rudimental techniques gives the air of form over function or indeed a linear meaning to his work. Woolway’s oeuvre encompasses paintings, wall hangings, sculptural and and works on paper. the physical elements of his more recent works include torn and cut canvas which demonstrates a desire to break from the norm whilst the structure in his pieces shows a willingness to conform. This juxtaposition forms the base of his work and is something that runs throughout. Henry’s work continues exploring the themes he has always confronted. The idea of process and calmness shows through. Colours are substituted by textures, layering, paint effects and allowed space. This abstinence grants the capacity for people to breath with and consider his work.

Scorpio
Located in London, GB
A multidisciplinary artist and experimental musician with synaesthesia, Jake-Andrew's practice is centred around the way the mind can perceive audio stimulus as colour, texture, shape and movement. Exploring sensory perception, Jake-Andrew documents the emotional and physical response to the relationships that exist between colour and sound, and how they can reflect the minutiae and melancholia of the human condition through gestural abstraction and introspective layering; exploring the progression of his physical practice for the digital renaissance by introducing pixel manipulation to digital gesture and occasionally physical attributes through coding. Jake-Andrew's work exists as an expressive, physical performance that allows him to create projected installation environments and immersive experiences; either on screen or in situ. Which affects the relationship that all of us have with colour and sound. Undertaken projects with Glenfiddich, Braun Audio...
