NY Arts – John Kingerlee and the Texture of Time

John Kingerlee, Inside Out, 2004. Collage and mixed media on paper. Courtesy of the artist. John Kingerlee, a UK-born practicing Muslim, has lived on the Beara Peninsula on the coast of Ireland for the past 25 years. He also spends about half the year in Granada, Spain, and in Morocco. All these lives, all these places, and all these beliefs bring texture to his work.

OK, jealous too! I lived in a very remote house here in Beara. John and his wife and kids had lived there before me and there were signs of his presence. Old paint tubes and paint stains on the kitchen table. Probably worth a lot now :-) Go visit his show if you’re in Florida…
