James Hunter’s recent series of abstract works could be said to fall into a genre that’s referred to as ‘surrealist automatism’ or ‘automatic drawing’, where marks are made without consciousness. Each created in the same colour palette on canvases of exactly the same size and presented in the same ‘portrait’ format, this group of paintings were born out of the need for a ‘lack of process’ after a period of being confined to making very structured pieces in a controlled environment.
