Christian Hook
Celebrating a remarkable decade at the forefront of contemporary art, Christian Hook's artwork caught the public’s attention when he was named Sky Arts Portrait Artist of the Year in 2014. Hook's original portraits are held in important permanent collections including several national galleries, and his celebrated sitters include Kristin Scott Thomas, Sir Richard Branson and Sir Ian McKellen. Hook explores the concepts of time and motion using multiple layers of transparent paint to create different perspectives on his subjects. His fractured images intersect to create complex and beautiful studies in time and motion. Each piece reflects a deep appreciation for classical art but is driven by his interest in science and philosophy and his ongoing quest for innovation and renewal.
