In EDDIE MARTINEZ second solo exhibition at LOYAL, Mr Martinez shows paintings and drawings made with an obvious ease and self-assurance. Taking a fresh approach to classical still-life paintings, Martinez’s handling of the paint breathes new life into traditional motifs. Narratives play out between the flowerpots, animals, plants, ladies, birds, mushrooms, and whatever else appears in Martinez’s fantastic world of domestic environments. Those who are familiar with his art will recognize the distinct style but be fascinated by his enriched image-language and in the strength of his work in large format paintings.
