'Conversational Pieces' - Henry Whysall

‘The gaze needs saving from the lazy fixation of addictive scrolling. I am always concerned with slowing the eye down a
little by drawing it into the painting rather than simply across it’.

‘Transformation is the central spine of all art. Alchemy interested me for many years, for obvious reasons. An interest I
share with many other artists. Alchemy is the black sheep twin of science. It is Science's bubbling, stinking, esoteric
smear stained shadow - it is hope against experience.’
