about the exhibition
Despite the diversity of Thornton Walker’s subject matter and technique, his interest in the dynamics of composition, perspective and spatial depth remains constant. While maintaining a focus on formal painterly concerns, Thornton incorporates subject matter recalled from travel, personal memories and sometimes dreams, conferring an ethereal, meditative quality to his work. Thornton’s paintings, on both paper and canvas, explore both landscape and figurative images that allude to a hidden narrative. Each painting is overwhelmingly beautiful yet mysterious and still.
