RAY RICHARDSON

Ray made two specific works for Cab Gallery; each an image taken from a painting and silkscreened onto canvas. Influenced by pulp-fiction, soul music, and with an intuitive grasp of portraying 'characters', his work mirrors perfectly the types you might see when travelling through the London streets. Described as the "Martin Scorsese of figurative painting", Ray's cinematic compositions, and narrative qualities echo the atmosphere of the taxi journey.
