Nasha presents Ley Lines, an exhibition of recent paintings by Flin Sharp.
Sharp's paintings are a lyrical study into the history of image making, oscillating between satire and sincerity. Through the process of erasing and layering, Sharp's paintings invite us to look for the images partially hidden underneath each layer of paint.
In Ley Lines, Sharp brings together a series of new works made between 2021 and 2023. Ley lines are the alignments of natural or sacred sites believed to possess spiritual or energetic significance, tethering together points on the Earth’s surface with invisible pathways. Through the web of stratified marks, Sharp’s paintings reference the spatial and narrative connections drawn between images and ideas. They explore forgotten artists, imaginary flora, lost cats and the feelings of joy and loneliness.
