Paul McIntyre: Utopia

A solo exhibition of paintings offering a journey through the dream-like landscapes of an imagined world.

“I’m never really sure what I’m trying to achieve in painting until I see it. I like the simplicity of ancient art, the giddiness of Arabian mosaic and the story telling in really good illustrations. Perhaps I’m ambitiously trying to recreate the feeling of discovering a beautiful beach, forest, rock pool, desert or seabed for the first time. So I create a new, colourful, slightly surreal, slightly dreamy version of the real world to discover.” – Paul McIntyre
