ALSO
An Odyssey of Painting by Chris Chasey
An exhibition curated by Caroline Gee and Judy Dewsbery
Between 1985 and 1995, our St Mary’s Terrace neighbour Chris Chasey took to recording his daily walks in paint on a huge industrial roll of paper, in his very small house… consequently, he was never able to view them all together. Instead, they were stashed one by one under his bed, where about sixty of them have remained, unscathed, for several decades.
These large-scale works leap from the tough printer’s paper in an exuberation of colour; watercolour and gum arabic give depth and sheen.
This is just the tip of the iceberg of Chris’s amazing output. His paintings are often recognisably places we know, without being either realist or abstract: Dungeness, Rye Harbour, Winchelsea, Fairlight beach, Battle bonfire.
On show is our choice of fourteen of the large unframed paintings plus a further selection of framed works.
