'Love and Light (Yellow and Blue)' - A signed, limited edition silkscreen print by Dan Baldwin.
Baldwin's
Love and Light series came about from a one-day project for CALM
charity (Campaign Against Living Miserably) in 2018. In this series,
Baldwin released a small, singular three-way colour combination of the
swallow. The title Love and Light was chosen as a reminder to remain on
the positive side of life. A year later, he worked with CALM again, this
time collaborating with designer Mercy Delta to create a
repeat-patterned silk shirt with the swallow from the Love and Light
print.
After having huge success with both
the print and the shirts, Baldwin has been prompted to return to a more
concentrated style of composition – scaling up the image, yet keeping
it powerfully simple. This contrasts greatly with the signature style he
has developed over the past fourteen years, marking the start of an
exciting new avenue of exploration in his current paintings.
Baldwin continues to enjoy the conversation and contrast of opposites in
his artwork: exploring the moods of monochrome in one series, and a
candy land of colour in the next. Fascinated by the different sides to
every artist’s output, particularly Damien Hirst, he loves the impact of
putting a palette of colours together as much as he does weaving
symbolic imagery into the fabric of his compositions.
*Print available with swallow facing up, or swallow facing down. To
select your preferred choice, contact the office on 01252 797201.
