Exhibition Talk: Ploughed Furrows, Variety Packed
Looking closely at works from contrasting periods and series of Colin Self's output, Nicholas Hatfull will discuss the relationship between the artist's preoccupation with packaging and his observation of the natural world. Drawing comparisons to artists in Self's orbit and beyond, Hatfull will explore Self's engagement with both graphic emblems and lived experience of landscape. Nicholas Hatfull is an artist, and has written about painting for numerous monographs and periodicals including Frieze, Mousse and Apollo. Recent solo exhibitions of his paintings include Josh Lilley, 2024 and Dracula's Revenge, 2023. He lectures in Fine Art at Norwich University of the Arts. The talk will last 40-45 minutes with a 10 minute Q&A to follow.
