Leo Arnold

This work encapsulates Arnold's receptive working method, through which he returns to a painting time and again. By revisiting, erasing, adding or letting go of his work, he embraces seemingly negative qualities such as anxiety, regret and uncertainty. The paintings are the outcome of Arnold's efforts to grasp at something, his trying to pin it down and make sense of his everyday surroundings and experiences. In that sense, the works are psychological rather than merely observational, capturing a state of mind.
