Void, 2007, ink on paper 20.8x13cmsAntony Hegarty is showing recent work at Isis Gallery, 20 Hanway Street, London W1 until 28th February.
"I have drawn and made things since I was a kid. The visual world is a place I can dream in solitude. I think about the present and how can I reach out to gather the past and the future and draw them towards me. I try to follow the lines, tracing the invisible. Sometimes it's a simple matter of bringing something into focus, or drawing forward the spirit I imagine lies hidden inside a thing. Other times, it's finding the flamingo that lives inside the shadow of my heart. Or I could try to cry a circle for the green eye light of a sea horse."
The Crying Light is Antony and the Johnsons latest musical release. Listen to the new single Epilepsy is Dancing.
