CONTEMPORARY: Michael Cullimore 

"Michael Cullimore is one of those homegrown English mystics at one with nature, seeing occult correspondences between landscape and people… if his works are suggestive of anything happening in English art between the wars, it is rather of the sophisticated and cosmopolitan Paul Nash …"            John Russell Taylor, The Times

Now in his seventies, this highly original and unexpectedly modest artist ranked in the tradition of William Blake and Paul Nash continues to produce deeply profound poetic drawings and paintings concerned with ideas of the nature of time and space.

In Michael's own search for meaning in life, his work changes the way we look at existence and the world around us. Whether it is through a distillation of poetic, mythological or biblical texts, or through his own vision of nature, his work consistently focuses on moments of transformation; shape-shifting experiments dwelling on the eternal cycles of growth and decay, death and
re-birth.
