Christopher Broadbent - New Prints for 2024


105. White Jug & Rag 2022
99. Studio 2021

“…The still life compositions of Christopher Broadbent not only display a studied analytical realism, but also appear to be floating in time, as if suspended. The element of suspension is so dominant, that the viewer is almost waiting for an event to occur for the sake of closure, or to be able to move away from the very image, onto the next…”
Holden Luntz, 2023
