Figurative painter Tim Wright reassembles his cast of characters in an unspecified interior space. They bide their time in seemingly empty moments. In a series of interludes the painter studies how they negotiate their social awkwardness. By tracing their gestures and body language he reveals a subtle interaction, layered with art historical allusion, redolent of a drama without words. The paintings explore the atmosphere of the heavy pause with all its potential and threat.
"We have kept our appointment and that's an end to that."
Samuel Beckett
