26‘Shard’ Diptych.2017, 230cm x 230cm enamel on canvasHis interest in art and communication is deep, seeing things differently seems to be his gift. Or maybe showing what is obvious,yet hidden by the very nature of its commonality is, I think, what lies underneath the essence of Patrick’s art. He has talkedabout painting using the square as a building block. He relates this to the images we all see today - pixels are square - they makeup everything we see on our digital devices - they hold our memories of loved ones - And they record those moments in lifethat can be both tragic and joyous. The pixel has enabled both global images and images of the whole universe to be transmittedanywhere, any time into the palm of our hands, the hand that holds the ubiquitous smart phone.An example of this thought process is Patrick’s painting of Rembrandt. It depicts the Master with images of his Son (Titus)whom Rembrandt used as a model often. Sadly, the father outlived the Son and Patrick created a painting that deals with this asa time aberration.The structure of the painting is once again based on the square and the finished painting is seen as a pixelated image - againmeticulously painted. His concerns lay not in the formal or usual abstraction of form but in the abstraction of creating an imagethat is recognisable, yet obviously man made with a hint of obscurity thrown in for good measure.When leaving Patrick’s studio, with a promise to contact him once I returned to my studio in Sweden, I suggested that maybeit would be an idea for the article I wanted to write, if he could create a ‘cartoon’ of himself to replace what I would normallyinclude, a photograph of the artist in his studio. On reflection, I wished I had asked him for a self portrait, done in his own style.There again, could he possibly make the time for that?©Denis Taylor. February 2018
