Roman Vaughan-Williams

Roman Vaughan-Williams makes artworks which map a landscape of relationships: within the outside world, inside his psyche, and between these two spaces. Roman’s works are often made up of juxtapositions of material; rusty iron A-frames come up against graphite-covered MDF and trompe l’oeil representations of woodgrain.

What appears like disparate matter is drawn together into visual poems; meditations clustered around particular concerns; Marxism, opium, De-Colonialism, thermodynamics, irony, sincerity, and Feminism. These poems do not explain the world but are maps in a journey of discovery; a journey to escape the impasse of ‘the eternal present’.
