Rob Curtis: Linocuts in a Garage

About

Having until recently lived and worked in inner London, Rob has always been interested in urban outdoor subjects. His views are always imaginary, though occasionally based on places he knows. He particularly enjoys imagining the cityscapes, often unseen by its inhabitants, of rooftops stretching to the horizon, the contrast between the broad geometrical structure of buildings, and the small changes to their appearance made by their inhabitants, whether by lighted windows, graffiti or scattered rubbish. He also loves exploring contrasts between light and shadow, and working up from black backgrounds to create three-dimensional effects.
