Kevin Sinnott work is full of motion and joy: The paint flows, and the wind blows! Everywhere, there are flags and laundry and arms all waving. His figures can't seem to contain themselves, forever rolling and beckoning, leaping and dancing! The streets and the hillsides are backdrops for the unruly choreography of life.
How easy is it to talk about the pain and the losses, to show the scars on our landscapes and faces and to dwell on our myriad disappointments? Kevin rescues our treasures. He reminds us of the pleasure of the extravagant richness of the precious sun on our skin, the thrill of collapsing together into the grass after a breathless dash up the hill. He is clearly alive to the consolations of memory, but still he exhorts us to live in the present fleeting moment. To laugh and dance and love.
Always, his generosity of spirit shines from his work.
Kevin Sinnott, born 1947 in Sarn, South Wales, has been exhibiting his work all over the world for 40 years. He is represented in many important public and private collections such as: Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York; National Museums and Galleries of Wales; British Museum; Arts Council of Great Britain.
Eloquently, he brings his love for his home and its people to the attention of the world.
