ANGOVE

Monolithic oil paintings delve into the complexities of time and space.


In the time it has taken you to read this sentence, the Earth will have travelled approximately 2730 kilometres through space.

Angove’s painting studio has one window that faces a brick wall that is made from approximately 17,000 red bricks. Since 1930, this wall has travelled 1.5 trillion kilometres through space. On the other side of this wall plays the latest Hollywood movie. This week it is, Dune.

This observation is both mundane and exquisite, and is what fuels Angove’s practice, that seeks to mine paintings from the mystery that surrounds us.
