"The simple positive message of Working Together was something I appreciated and is so important right now. I was drawn to the poet's use of concepts that are ubiquitous in our everyday life (space, air, stars) and how their scale and sublime nature makes them hard to grasp."
Chris Oatey's practice has been consistently informed by a cartographic sensibility. He produces a wide range of works from the intricately hand-drawn to the raw, immediate recording of his everyday surroundings. Chris skillfully documents surface textures in and out of the studio. His work highlights the unexpected and overlooked aspects of both materials and ordinary sites.
