Artist Statement:
Trevor Wood is an artist,
whose painting style has
evolved from his early,
rigorous training in Scotland
through a figurative
perspective to become this
fluid yet carefully considered
abstract style of today. The
work is informed by two areas
of interest: the changing
post-industrial landscape of
north and east London (his
present surroundings); and
natural phenomena, wide open
spaces and the natural
environment. Like many
Scottish artists, he is very
much influenced by the
natural, wild landscape of his
country.
"The first provides the
desolation and decay - the
epitome of the end of a cycle
and the beginning of
regeneration. The second, by
contrast, gives a more
infinite, grander and natural
version of the same - matter
acted on by centuries of
weather, showing the effects
of time and the elements."
"Both are devoid of any direct
human presence but there is
sometimes a romantic or
spiritual element to the work.
I endeavour to capture the
essence of these environments
through use of texture and a
varying use of materials on
the surface of the canvas or
other support material."
