Sites Unseen is a distillation of Hull’s hidden and unseen urban routes. Known as ‘Tenfoots’ in Hull, these back alleys provide an interesting map of Hull’s suburban / urban districts; mapping the in-between of domestic life, inhabited and owned yet seemingly derelict. Intent on discovering the picturesque of the everyday, the roughness and irregularity of the mundane these paintings and drawings are not though to be viewed as exploitative of the ‘down at heel’ but an observation of this urban picturesque. This collection is British contemporary painting first and foremost. The drawings and paintings have a very lively, colourful yet delicate response to what is often overlooked.
