HENRY HUDSON,
"Study of Plate 4 No. 4", 40 x 31 cm, with frame 47 x 37 cm.
The piece is on view at Bukowskis, Berzelii Park 1, February 7-10.
"For the past 7 years, Hudson’s medium of choice has primarily been plasticine. With this material he creates paintings that have a depth and sculptural quality that cannot be replicated with oil paint. In preparation he softens the plasticine over a hotplate so that it can be manipulated with his fingers. It is then mixed, empastoed thickly on board in several layers of colour, finally sculpted and texturised with biros, paint brushes and other make-shift tools."
