Cosmography: Paintings and Drawings by Charles Somerton

Cosmography: Paintings and Drawings by Charles Somerton

“Through art we seek knowledge. We are the sentient universe investigating itself and looking for answers to the ‘big’ questions. Ultimately, the one truth that we can rely on is that we can only experience the present moment.”

Charles Somerton lives and works in Exeter, having settled down after several years travelling abroad. His paintings have a rich, deep, tactile surface and an exuberant colour palette which Charles mixes solely from the three primary shades. The sense of harmony present in his works is strongly reminiscent of traditional mandalas, reflecting his observation of similar patterns appearing in ancient artworks around the world.

Cosmography: Paintings and Drawings by Charles Somerton will be on display in Artizan’s Main Gallery in May 2017 as a part of our 2017 Solo Series.

The exhibition will run from 1st – 20th May with a ‘Meet the Artist’ private viewing on 4th May.

Monday-Saturday 10:30-16:30
