Justin Mortimer
12 Oct-9 Nov 2012
Haunch Of Venison, Eastcastle Street
London W1W 8EB
Haunch of Venison presents an exhibition of new large-scale paintings by British artist Justin Mortimer. Mortimer’s paintings are haunted by figures in circumstances of physical threat and psychological distress. They are typically surrounded by machines, medical apparatus and the evidence of conflict. These abject environments are eerily beautiful collages of images sourced from the Internet, from medical journals, holiday photos and documents of war.
