FAD MAGAZINE | SKIN DEEP EXAMINES THE POWER OF THE BODY IN CONTEMPORARY ART

Mark Westall, Fad Magazine, 21 March 2023

FAD MAGAZINE FEATURES STUDIO WEST'S EXHIBITION, 'SKIN DEEP'.

 
"SKIN DEEP, a group exhibition of eleven emerging UK-based figurative painters. The works on show examine the body as a vessel through which we interface with the external world and as a blank slate onto which our experiences are irreversibly inscribed. Through various renderings of skin texture and surface, we are reminded of our corporeal fragility – we witness the porousness of the protective yet penetrable barrier that contains us.
