Tomas Clayton Bridgnorth, United kigndom
These classical-style portraits have nothing in common with contemporary trends and topics, which is surprising, given that Tomas worked for many years as a graphic designer for the most up-to-date corporations. These portraits represent a liberation from the imposed norms of kitschy aesthetics and come to the grain. Through historical motifs, Tomas talks about subtle, incommunicable human feelings.

The images ‘Sobre las olas’ and ‘Henry’s bicycle’ belong to his oil-painting series, which explores the psychological impact of the Great War. Although the artist never depicts combat directly, through facial and posture expressions, he reveals that people’s worst scars are private.
