Statement:
Christopher Tansey is an East Yorkshire based painter who studied Fine Art at Liverpool John Moores University. Tansey's paintings are autobiographical and self reflective, drawing upon existence, experience, memory and sentiency to express largely emotive responses through the use of vaguely identifiable elements, forms and motifs. Tansey's paintings are also an exploration of the 'isness' of the materials used and their intrinsic nature, characteristics and qualities.
Questioning, meaning and understanding are very much part of his creative process.
Recent exhibitions include Messums North, Hastings Contemporary, Pineapple Black Middlesbrough, Fronteer Gallery Sheffield, Air Gallery and PS Mirabel Manchester, Ferens Art Gallery, Humber Street Gallery, Fruit Market (solo) and 87 Gallery (solo) Hull, Elysium Gallery Swansea, Three Works and The Old Parcels Office Scarborough. Christopher was also long listed for the Contemporary British Painting prize 2021.
