The Cat Lover's House
The Cat Lover's House
Original oil on canvas board, framed in a floating white wood tray frame measuring 28 x 33.5 cm.
Night has fallen on the Cat Lover's House and the moonlight illuminates a myriad of felines vying for attention across the facade of this building. Their nocturnal activities seem to have disturbed the occupant, as a soft light glows from the downstairs window. In the background we observe a lone lamp post illuminating skeletal winter trees. This landscape feels hauntingly far from city life.
The Artist
The Artist
Looking closely at light and shadow, Chris blends painterly realism with intriguing narrative. He pays attention to the everyday, the half-noticed and the overlooked. From an isolated building next to a canal to an unremarkable row of houses - Chris collects imagery which has sparked his imagination and transforms it. By placing these single houses into unexpected rural spaces he changes the context and thus creates a new narrative - steeped in otherness, nostalgic beauty and a hint of the surreal. A black and white cat traces his every step.
