Tim Maxwell: An Artist's Statement and Recent Work

Tim Maxwell’s hand-drawn pieces present a dichotomy of geometrical order alongside unexpected, even playful, spontaneity. Described as “beautiful chaos,” Maxwell’s work explores the nature of direction, disappointment, and personal autonomy. Through this isolating quarantine year, Maxwell has continued to create, seeking solace in the repetition of line. “Art cures all,” he writes. “It always has and always will. This has been empirically tested through death, divorce and pandemics and art was always there to supply the antidote.”
