This month on A Geography of Colour podcast I am talking with painter Simon Callery about his relationship with colour.Simon challenges what painting can do today. He makes work that exists on the margins of what can be understood as painting. On his studio wall is written the word ‘INVERT’ to remind him every day to subvert the established conventions of image-based painting, to find new roles and develop new forms for painting. He intends that an encounter with one of his paintings is as much for the body as it is for the eye.He has worked in the landscape alongside field archaeologists on many projects and applies this knowledge he find here to works made in the urban environment and also to developing studio based work. The visceral qualities of the excavation sites have made him sensitive to the physical qualities of landscape and the relationship of material to time.He embraces the fact that his paintings share spatial qualities we associate with sculpture. He feels that living in an image dominant culture the stress on the visual in everyday life inevitably suppresses the other senses. He is working to give painting a material body and as a consequence, a better awareness of our own.Simon Callery (London, 1960). Graduated from Cardiff College of Art in 1983.
