Adrian Pritchard
Adrian Pritchard makes work that attempts to redefine our relationship with matter by using gravity, the very force that universally dictates form. By working with the tensions between friction and fluidity, the dynamic and the static, the imposed geometry and the inherent viscosity of commercial paints, he explores the on-going visual aesthetic. For a number of years he has been producing precipitated paintings, using the forces of gravity to channel the paint over canvases and objects. Adrian graduated from the Slade School of Art and has since exhibited widely across the UK and Japan. His work appears in numerous collections including University College Falmouth, One Aldwych London and the British Embassy Tokyo. During the last few years he has been chosen for a number of exhibitions Including New Trends in Painting, Leicester City Gallery, North West Open Prize, Art Gene Cumbria and Liverpool Independents.
