Developed over the last year, the expanding collection of paintings are created using a collagic approach of gathering subject matter. Sketches of local and wider London life, periodic stills of the seasonal skylines over N15, live sittings with friends & the local community in transition, morph into unique compositions. The results in this body of work are fascinating and dreamlike conjuring visions of everyday humanity in a state of flux – uncertain and anticipatory in equal measure.
Also being presented, are what Summers describes as “relics” of the studio process. The intriguing recycled pieces, all used initially as temporary palettes, retain an antiquitous quality. Now numerous, they have become a collection of living, breathing maps for the paintings, whilst taking on a life of their own.
