    This vintage handmade traditional European pictorial kilim rug features a charming and rustic design that evokes a folkloric, storybook feel. Woven with earthy neutral tones, the central image showcases a stylised tree of life with colourful branches, and perched at its heart is a whimsical bird, with a fan-like tail rendered in soft blue and gold.

    Warm beige, cream, and brown base tones are accented by subtle pastel blues, soft pinks, and muted gold, creating a soft, inviting aesthetic. Floral rosettes along the top and bottom borders add balance and a touch of ornamentation, while the fringed ends enhance the handmade charm.

    Crafted using the flat-weaving technique, this rug has no pile, giving it a reversible surface that is both lightweight and durable.

    This beautiful Afghan handmade artisan rug showcases a vibrant display of tribal and symbolic patterns using earthy tones—reds, oranges, browns, and greens—against a neutral base and with a rose coloured border.

  • Figure in a Carriage

    Figure in a Carriage

    £475

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    An evocative semi-abstract mid-century modernist figurative painting executed in oil onto canvas by Swedish artist Eric Elfvén (1921–2008), whose works have been exhibited in public collections including the Moderna Museet in Stockholm, Jönköping Museum, Borås Art Museum, and the Victoria and Albert Museum in London. 

    The composition captures the fleeting impression of a lone passenger illuminated by an unseen light source- perhaps the outside world glimpsed through a carriage window.

    The painting is semi-abstract, with blocks of textured pigment forming the suggestion of a figure framed by architectural shapes that recall the interior of a carriage.

    The palette is a masterful interplay of deep browns, blackened greens, and oxblood reds, punctuated by soft corals, pale peach, and a sliver of white that slices the darkness like a beam of light. Heavy impasto brushwork adds physical depth, while the confident horizontal and vertical strokes convey the structure of motion and confinement.

    There’s a poetic stillness to the work – an intimate moment caught in transit, abstracted through modernist sensibility yet rich in narrative potential.

    This oil on canvas  is housed in a complementary gilt frame. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

  • Geometric Collage with 2 Circles

    Geometric Collage with 2 Circles

    £380

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A very unique original artwork by British artist Dave Boyd, constructed from discarded books (repurposed cloth covers, papers, cardboard, binding boards) mounted on a wooden panel in a solid wood float frame.

    The composition consists of two muted circular forms, each placed centrally within the upper and lower halves of the piece. The circles—soft pinkish and earthy reddish tones—are made from swatches of book covers, creating a tactile contrast against the rich, golden-brown marbled background.

    The background evokes a sense of aged parchment or worn leather, enhancing the artwork’s connection to its literary origins. The precise placement of the circles introduces a sense of symmetry and contemplation, while the visible grain and patina of the materials speak to time, reuse, and the quiet endurance of objects past.

    Dave’s artistic practice focuses on the juxtaposition between the manmade and the natural and the human experience of geometric forms, surfaces and materials. Paintings and collages often embody a built or constructed aesthetic and are strongly influenced by architecture and the built environment, with the aim of suggesting visual encounters with structures and landscapes. Utilising and repurposing materials,  with a focus on minimal composition, surface and colour, Dave’s work seek to utilise the subtle marks inherent in objects that have been used and handled over many years.

  • Geometric Still Life

    Geometric Still Life

    £850

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A striking and brilliantly executed mid-century modernist style still life composition, executed in oil onto board.

    The central object that punctuates the composition is a light blue pitcher, whose elongated shape gives it a strong presence .Surrounding the pitcher are geometric shapes—a blue cube, a yellow block, and a lemon—that create a rhythm of forms around the central figure. The background consists of abstract, overlapping planes in warm as well as earthy tones – with shades of yellow, brown, red, and green, adding depth to the composition.

    This piece reflects the modernist focus on simplification and abstraction, capturing a scene through shapes, colours, and a deliberate absence of fine detail.

    Rather than blending, the artist has used defined colour areas that maintain the integrity of each shape and add to the painting’s geometric quality. The contrasting colours are arranged in a harmonious and cohesive manner, imbuing the work with liveliness.

    This oil on board in a complementary walnut stained wood frame. There are some minor surface marks to the painting as seen in the photos. Both painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

  • Harbour in Hues

    Harbour in Hues

    £490

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A mid-century modernist harbour scene that captures the liveliness of a bustling port through an abstracted lens, executed in oil onto board.

    The composition features stylised boats with tall masts, cranes, and sails, all arranged in a rhythmic balance that evokes both movement and stillness. A triangular sail anchors the right side of the canvas, while geometric ship structures rise on the left, framed against a luminous sky.

    The artist has used a modernist, semi-abstract style, reducing forms to simplified shapes and colour blocks while maintaining recognisable nautical motifs. The colour palette is fresh and expressive: soft yellows and muted greys provide a serene backdrop, while accents of bright red, orange, and yellow inject energy and contrast.

    The brushstrokes are confident and varied. This interplay of texture adds depth and dynamism, suggesting reflections on water and the shifting atmosphere of a harbour at work.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary wooden frame with traces of gilt and muted red accent. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has some scuffs.

  • Memory of a Coast

    Memory of a Coast

    £595

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A long and serene mid-century abstract landscape that captures the quiet expanse of a coastal scene, distilled into soft geometric fields of colour, executed in oil onto canvas and dated 1956.

    Blocks of pale blue, sandy beige, and warm cream suggest shifting sands, shallow waters, and reflected light, while two muted brown landforms anchor the horizon line. The overall composition evokes the sensation of gazing at the shoreline through a veil of haze or memory, where form dissolves into atmosphere.

    The style is reductive and modernist, leaning toward abstraction while retaining the impression of sea, sky, and land. Broad, flat planes of colour are applied with gentle brushstrokes that reveal subtle texture beneath the surface, while thin, almost translucent layers give a sense of light filtering through. The palette is soothing and harmonious, dominated by sky blues and sandy neutrals with touches of earthy brown, evoking serenity and openness.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary wooden frame, with natural woodgrain visible. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

  • Memory of a Landscape

    Memory of a Landscape

    £560

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A bold and abstract mid-century composition, painted in oil onto board.

    This painting is composed of large, solid blocks of colour and thick, expressive brushstrokes. While not realistic, it suggests a natural scene, perhaps a sunset or sunrise over hills or a valley.

    The upper half of the canvas is dominated by a clear, bright blue that could represent the sky. There is a large red circle positioned in the top right quadrant – this striking element resembles the sun or moon, radiating a powerful visual presence, anchoring the composition. Below the red circle is a sweeping shape in green, possibly representing a grassy hill or field, surrounded by brown, beige, and ochre, evoking earth or terrain.

    There are small red marks scattered to the green and brown area, which add interest and detail and encourage you to look deeper at the painting, drawing you in.

    Despite its boldness, the horizontal layering and balanced composition give a sense of calm and order. This is the kind of painting that invites multiple interpretations—sunset over a landscape, a memory, or even an abstract metaphor for time and place.

    This oil on board is presented in a simple wood frame that suits it well. Both painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

  • Shoreline Light

    Shoreline Light

    £410

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A mid-century coastal landscape painting that captures the quiet meeting point between land, sea, and sky in a softened abstraction, executed in oil onto canvas.

    The horizon line divides the composition with calm simplicity: a pale sky stretches above a tranquil blue sea, while the foreground is alive with textured planes of yellow, orange, rust, and sandy beige. These earthy tones suggest windswept dunes basking under light, while the faint hints of rose and lavender lend a delicate warmth to the scene.

    Painted in an abstract impressionist manner, the artist has used broad, confident strokes, layering thick impastos of colour that create both depth and vibrancy. The brushwork is loose yet deliberate, with overlapping textures that blur the boundaries between natural forms, evoking movement and atmosphere.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary silver painted frame. The painting is in excellent condition, and the frame has a mark to the bottom edge as shown.

  • Veils of Grey

    Veils of Grey

    Sold

    SOLD

    A  large mid-century abstract painting that explores an interplay of muted tones and layered forms, creating a composition that feels both architectural and atmospheric, executed in oil onto canvas.

    The subject matter is non-representational, allowing the viewer to interpret shifting planes and subtle depths that suggest shadowed interiors or blurred landscapes without resolving into a fixed image.

    Rendered in a restrained palette of whites, greys, silvers, and soft taupe, with occasional accents of darker brown and hints of blue, the work captures a cool, contemplative mood.

    The brushstrokes are loose yet deliberate – some areas built up with dense, textured applications, while others are feathered, thinned, or softly blended to create a sense of translucency and motion. The overall effect is one of quiet dynamism, as if forms are emerging and dissolving within a luminous fog.

    This oil on canvas is presented in a complementary gilt frame. The painting is in excellent vintage condition. The frame has some minor scuffing but this does not detract from its overall attractiveness.

  • Fresh Fields

    Fresh Fields

    £415

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A lively mid-century post-impressionist landscape composition, executed in oil onto board.

    Small yet impactful, the painting showcases a vibrant and abstracted depiction of nature, where lush fields with rolling hills in the background have been deconstructed and simplified into blocks of contrasting shades.

    Post-impressionist in nature, the artist has selected a saturated and rich palette – using colours to evoke emotion rather than merely representing the landscape. The use of expressive brushstrokes, combined with a lightly textured surface, contribute to the painting’s dynamic and emotive quality as well.

    This oil on board is housed in a complementary gilt frame. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

  • Blue Horizon

    Blue Horizon

    £510

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A mid-century painting that presents a serene and minimalist abstraction of a coastal landscape, executed in oil onto board.

    The composition is reduced to bold horizontal bands and planes of colour, evoking sea, sky, and shoreline through pure geometry.

    The subject matter is suggested rather than depicted – soft gradations of blue recall the horizon line where sea meets sky, while the darker horizontal strip hints at a distant shoreline, and the pale lower section conveys the sandy openness of the beach.

    The style is distinctly modernist, with a restrained geometric abstraction typical of mid-century sensibilities. The artist emphasises simplicity, balance, and a meditative stillness, favouring form and colour over literal detail.

    The colours are cool and calming: pale sky blue and soft powder blue are contrasted with earthy browns, muted creams, and gentle yellows. These tones create both harmony and subtle tension across the composition.

    The brushstrokes are controlled and smooth, with areas of solid flat colour applied in broad planes, giving the painting a crisp, clean quality. The artist’s hand is deliberately understated, prioritising structure and tonal contrasts over texture.

    This oil on board is housed in a complementary and well made wood frame. The painting is in excellent vintage condition. The frame has some very minor scuffing, commensurate with age.

  • Constructed Balance

    Constructed Balance

    £975

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A mid-century modernist abstract oil composition, painted by the established Swedish artist Bengt Delefors (1917-1996), whose works have been exhibited in public collections including the Moderna Museet in Stockholm, The Museum of Art in Gothenburg, Borås Art Museum, and others.

    This abstract still life composition has been reduced to bold, geometric forms and overlapping planes of colour. A circular form rests against angular shapes, suggesting the presence of everyday objects reimagined through abstraction. The composition is carefully balanced, with diagonal strokes introducing movement across the canvas.

    Executed in a distinctly mid-century abstract style, the work embraces simplification and geometric reduction, drawing on the principles of Cubism while leaning into a modernist emphasis on form and structure over representation.

    The palette is earthy yet dynamic, dominated by deep greens, muted browns, and bold blocks of red, offset by neutral tones of beige and cream. The interplay of darker and lighter hues creates depth and tonal contrast, giving the surface both rhythm and solidity.

    The brushwork is confident and expressive, with areas of thickly applied paint and visible strokes that enhance the painting’s sense of immediacy and physical presence. The layering of opaque and semi-opaque colours builds a structured, tactile surface.

    This oil on board is presented in a characterful wood frame. The painting and frame is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has scuffs.

  • Astrid

    Astrid

    £855

    Available

    Free UK Shipping Only.

    A brilliantly executed and emotive mid-century modernist style figurative composition that presents a contemplative nude figure, executed in oil onto canvas and dated 1960.

    The figure, constructed through broad angular planes and softened edges, is seated in a relaxed pose, one leg bent and the torso subtly twisted – creating a gentle rhythm that guides the viewer’s gaze through the composition.

    Executed in a restrained yet warm palette of ochre, sienna, and earthy umber, the body is set against a backdrop of powder blue, grey, and dusty taupe. This juxtaposition of warm and cool tones imbues the painting with both emotional tension and visual calm.

    The brushwork is expressive but controlled, with textured applications of paint that oscillate between opaque coverage and dry-brush translucency, revealing the wood grain beneath. There’s a tactile quality to the strokes – layered, scraped, and directional – that accentuates the structural anatomy of the figure while maintaining abstraction.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary slim wood frame. The painting’s surface exhibits areas of craquelure, consistent with age. While the paint layer remains stable across most of the canvas, there is some instability noted in the central section beneath the figure’s chest. The frame is in good vintage condition. 

    Size: 82.5 x 68.5 cm (including frame)

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A bold and enigmatic mid-century figurative portrait, executed in oil onto board and dated 1957.

    The composition depicts a simplified and abstracted figure with a frontal, mask-like face. The facial features are distorted, emphasising expressive shapes and tones rather than realism. Containing elements of expressionism and abstraction, there is a strong emphasises on emotional resonance, as opposed to detailed representation.

    Interaction

    £510

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A vibrant geometric abstract composition that explores form and interaction, executed in oil onto canvas and dated 1991.

    The painting features a dynamic arrangement of amoebic shapes in overlapping layers. The subject matter is intentionally non-representational, evoking the energy of human presence or social exchange through softened silhouettes that seem to drift, merge, or dance within a flat pictorial space.

    Rendered in bold blocks of solid colour – striking red and orange, yellow, cobalt blue, and deep plum – the forms float atop a simplified two-tone background of blue and green, suggestive of sky and earth. The palette is both playful and intentional, using contrast to create visual depth without shadows or gradients.

    Brushstrokes are smooth and minimally textured, allowing the flatness and precision of each colour field to hold compositional tension. The overall effect is a harmonious yet enigmatic piece that invites viewers to contemplate the relationships between shape, space, and colour.

  • Whispers of Blue

    Whispers of Blue

    £780

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A very pleasant and soothing modernist abstract landscape oil composition dated 1964, and painted by the established Swedish artist Ture Fabiansson (1910-1994), whose works have been exhibited in public collections including the Moderna Museet in Stockholm, The Museum of Art in Gothenburg, Jönköping Museum, Borås Art Museum, and many others.

    The painting presents a lyrical abstraction of nature, rendered in a simplified, expressive manner. Dominating the canvas is a large, cloud-like form in soft sky blue, spreading across the surface in loose, swirling brushstrokes that suggest movement and depth. Around this central mass, smaller organic shapes in earthy olive-greens rise vertically, evoking trees or natural formations, while muted pink and cream passages peek through, softening the composition.

    The style is minimalist yet painterly, leaning toward abstraction while still evoking landscape elements. The palette is restrained but harmonious: pale blue, moss green, muted pink, and warm beige. The brushwork is broad, textured, and somewhat gestural, creating a sense of spontaneity and rhythm.

    Overall, the piece balances form and void, evoking the serenity of a landscape distilled into pure colour and shape.

    Coastal Bend

    £650

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A large and tranquil mid-century landscape painting that captures a serene coastal scene where land, sea, and sky merge in soft abstraction, executed in oil onto canvas.

    A pale sandy shoreline curves gently into the canvas, embraced by rolling hills rendered in muted olive and sage tones. Beyond, a calm expanse of blue-grey water stretches across the composition, fading into a sky of pale blue and light peach with delicate cloud sweeps.

    The artist has worked in a semi-abstract modernist style, reducing natural forms to broad planes of colour and fluid, interwoven shapes. The palette is harmonious yet subtly contrasting – earthy browns and greens meet with cooler greys and sky blues. Brushstrokes are gestural and loose, layering both horizontal sweeps and curved motions that suggest movement in land and water.

    Overall, the work balances tranquillity with rhythmic energy, presenting an interpretation of nature through the lens of mid-century abstraction.

    A semi-abstract mid-century painting that presents a serene harbour scene with moored boats set against softly shifting reflections of water and sky, executed in oil onto canvas and dated 1955.

    The artist has abstracted the forms of vessels and docks into interlocking geometric planes, capturing the essence of the harbour through suggestion rather than detail.

    Executed in a restrained yet harmonious palette, the work features muted ochres, warm browns, dusty blues, and gentle greens, punctuated by touches of rust-red along the hulls. The brushstrokes are broad and confident, laid down in flat, layered planes that create a rhythmic balance between solidity and fluidity. This compositional approach emphasises structure and form, while the softened edges convey an atmosphere of calm observation.

    In true mid-century style, the painting has reduced naturalistic detail in favour of tonal harmonies and simplified shapes, evoking both modernist abstraction and lyrical impression.

  • Houses on the Horizon

    Houses on the Horizon

    £565

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A soothing modernist painting that depicts a stylised horizon where three houses rest quietly in the distance, painted in oil onto board and dated 1970.

    The scene is reduced to bold horizontal bands of colour, evoking the sweep of open fields, sky, and distant land. The houses appear as simplified, block-like forms  – dark silhouettes accented with white and red – standing in quiet contrast against the rich layers of the landscape.

    Executed in a modernist style, the work emphasises abstraction and rhythm over detail, distilling the essence of farmland into pure forms.

    The brushwork is measured and horizontal, with deliberate layering that builds subtle depth while maintaining a calm and minimalist aesthetic. The simplicity of line and form imbues the painting with a contemplative, timeless quality.

  • Cubist Interior with Chair

    Cubist Interior with Chair

    £455

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A compelling mid-century painting that presents an abstracted interior scene rendered in a cubist style, executed in oil onto board and dated 1966 by the established Swedish artist Richard Björklund (1897–1974), whose works have been exhibited in public collections including the National Museum in Stockholm, Moderna Museet in Stockholm, Malmo Museum, Ystads Art Museum, and others.

    The composition is built from interlocking geometric blocks of colour, suggesting architectural forms, furniture, and a seated figure to the right. The artist breaks the interior down into a rhythmic arrangement of rectangles and planes, creating a layered sense of depth while preserving a flattened, modernist aesthetic.

    The palette is dominated by muted mauves, greys, and blacks, enlivened with striking accents of cobalt blue and deep crimson. These colours are applied in confident, opaque blocks, their edges sometimes softened by visible brushstrokes that reveal the artist’s hand. The brushwork is assertive, giving the impression of both structure and spontaneity.

    Hints of a chair, a table, and a figure are discernible but dissolve into abstraction, leaving the viewer to navigate between representation and geometry. This work reflects the mid-century embrace of cubist abstraction, balancing formal rigour with expressive colour.

    This oil on board is presented in a complementary silver painted frame. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has some scuffs as well as losses as shown in the photos.

  • Cubist Picnic

    Cubist Picnic

    £555

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A striking painting that presents a lively outdoor dining scene interpreted through a playful Cubist lens, executed in oil onto canvas and dated 1986.

    Fragmented figures and objects – plates, cutlery, food, and bottles -are reassembled into a bold, geometric composition. Faces, limbs, and tableware overlap in dynamic angles, giving the impression of multiple perspectives unfolding simultaneously.

    The palette is vibrant and saturated. Sharp contrasts of colour planes create rhythm and movement across the canvas, while the artist uses flat, angular brushstrokes to emphasise form over realism. Details like a patterned dish of food, a bottle of salt, and stylised trees in the background contribute to the sense of narrative within abstraction.

    Executed in a flattened, semi-abstract style characteristic of Cubist and post-Cubist traditions, the work balances playful energy with structural harmony.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary gilt frame. The painting has a mark on its right side but this does not affect its overall attractiveness, and the frame has some small scuffs present.

  • Fruits in Firelight

    Fruits in Firelight

    £780

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A vivid and vibrant semi-abstract still life composition, painted in oil onto canvas and dated 1968.

    This vibrant still life painting bursts with energy, colour, and texture. Executed in thick, expressive strokes of oil paint, it depicts a lively arrangement of fruit—a watermelon, pears, and an apple—set around a bold white jug or vessel.

    The palette is dominated by fiery oranges and reds, offset by cool greens, blues, and earthy neutrals, creating a striking visual rhythm. The artist uses impasto technique, layering paint thickly so that the surface itself becomes dynamic and tactile, almost sculptural.

    Forms are loosely defined and semi-abstract, with bold black outlines and simplified shapes that emphasise movement over realism. The objects tilt and overlap in a way that feels playful and spontaneous, reflecting the modernist influence of mid-20th-century European still life painting.

    The overall effect is joyful, bold, and full of life—a painting that doesn’t just capture objects but transforms them into a celebration of colour and form. Its golden frame heightens the sense of richness and drama, making it a striking statement piece for any interior.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary gilt frame. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has some scuffing.

    A large and outstanding mid-century modernist abstract figurative composition in oil, painted onto canvas by Swedish painter Hans Osswald (1919-1983), whose works have been exhibited at the National Museum in Stockholm, Malmö Museum as well as The Brooklyn Museum.

    The painting captures a tender moment between two figures, likely an adult and a child, engaged in a shared activity – perhaps reading – on a pale yellow surface held between them. The figures are rendered with bold black contour lines and simplified geometric forms, evoking a quiet intimacy and emotional restraint characteristic of modernist abstraction.

    The palette is soft yet expressive, with cool mint green and powder blue balanced against pale yellow, white, and black. Textural brushwork adds depth, especially in the background and garment areas, where layers of impasto reveal the artist’s hand. The faceless figures and stylized forms invite universal interpretation, evoking themes of mentorship, learning, and companionship without prescribing a specific narrative.

    Executed with a controlled yet expressive brush, this work speaks to the elegance of restraint – where every shape and colour block carries emotional weight.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary slim gilt frame. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has scuffs. 

    Size:  82 x 70 cm (including frame)

    A playful and edgy one-off original monoprint presented in a sapele frame, by British artist Olivia Bouzyk.

    Unlike most printmaking, where artists create an edition of identical prints, a monoprint produces just one final piece. Olivia works on a plate — inking, painting, and layering textures — and then transfers the image onto paper. But because of the process, it can never be repeated in the same way again.

    This artworks is a two layered monoprint which creates new lines and curves through the simple layering. This allows each shape to emphasise its own individuality.

    Each work holds the spontaneity of the moment it was made — the way the ink spread, the pressure of the press, the marks left behind. No two are ever alike. When you own one of Olivia’s prints, you’re holding the only version that exists.

    Olivia works with contrasts in line, colour and form and a sense of harmony is achieved by balancing this series of juxtapositions.

    This artwork, as with the others, has no intended direction, so it can be hung to suit the viewer’s space/inclinations. The fixtures on the back of all the prints are on each side so that they can be hung in any direction, and the signature also has no intended direction.

    It is mounted and housed in a high quality sapele wood frame with anti reflective UV glass. Both frame and artwork are in excellent condition.

    Size:  61 x 44 cm (including frame)

    A fun and edgy large one-off original monoprint presented in a coloured frame, by British artist Olivia Bouzyk.

    This monoprint is created from two individual stencils on different ghost print monoprint plates in two separate colours (a ghost print is when the plate has already gone through the press). Whilst the different layers are already in different shapes, there are additional dialogues between the different components because of the different shapes that appear within the main shapes as a result of the ghost print.

  • Geometric Collage in Burnt Umber

    Geometric Collage in Burnt Umber

    Sold

    SOLD

    A very unique original artwork by British artist Dave Boyd, constructed from discarded books (repurposed cloth covers, papers, cardboard, binding boards) mounted on a wooden panel in a solid wood float frame.

    The grid consists of six distinct blocks in a mix of blues, white, and earthy red, contrasting against the warm, burnt umber or rust-coloured background. The grid arrangement is asymmetrical, giving the piece a sense of modernist abstraction while maintaining an organic, handmade feel.

    The artwork is presented in wood frame that suits it very well. It has been constructed with professional grade adhesive and is shipped with robust fixings, ready to hang, Both artwork and frame are in excellent condition.

    Dave’s artistic practice focuses on the juxtaposition between the manmade and the natural and the human experience of geometric forms, surfaces and materials. Paintings and collages often embody a built or constructed aesthetic and are strongly influenced by architecture and the built environment, with the aim of suggesting visual encounters with structures and landscapes. Utilising and repurposing materials,  with a focus on minimal composition, surface and colour, Dave’s work seek to utilise the subtle marks inherent in objects that have been used and handled over many years.
