Mark Curryer
Tail Lights and Indicators, NYC
Original mixed media cityscape

Tail Lights and Indicators, NYC captures one of the defining visual experiences of the modern city — the view through a windscreen at night in New York, the red of tail lights and the orange of indicators creating a moving abstract composition that is simultaneously functional information and visual spectacle. Curryer's mixed media technique is perfectly suited to this subject: layers of paint and additional materials building the light effects that photography captures but cannot fully convey.

New York at night has been painted and photographed countless times, but Curryer finds a specific perspective — the driver's perspective, the view from within the traffic — that gives the work a quality of immersion rather than observation. For collectors in Berkshire, Surrey, and London who respond to the visual drama of the city, Tail Lights and Indicators, NYC is one of his strongest works. Available through Creed Gallery, Ascot.
