“Colin Pennock works intuitively, guided not by narrative but by the visceral act of painting. Harnessing the expressive power of oil, the artist externalises his inner cosmos in ways that are both gently private and vastly inclusive. The self-described “vortex” of Pennock’s psychic landscape is transcribed in poetic pieces; spectral shards of memory that splice into the picture plane.

In all their vastness and intimacy, these works speak of the tight connective tissue between individual experience and collective being – between the lone wave descending on the shore and the entire endless ocean.”
