Ithell Colquhoun’s work stands at the crossroads of art, magic, and social reform. Rooted in landscape, myth, and the living intelligence of matter, her paintings and writings speak powerfully to contemporary longings for depth, enchantment, and ecological relationship.

Different landscapes in our sense of the world also speak to us differently, and here it serves us to consider the aspect of ‘North’ in Phillips’s work. Made on and of the chalklands of England’s South Downs, then nurtured and moulded in art school in South Wales (where his dissertation for his degree in Fine Art provides us with another clue -  ‘Remedy in the Affliction: Beginning with the Wound’) the intervening years have slowly led the artist Northwards.
