Experiments in Living

 

In the series "Experiments in Living" visual artist Anthony Prothero shifts his focus from familial themes to an immersive exploration of landscapes. Departing from previous familial narratives, Prothero delves into the nuanced elements of the land, aiming to unveil its inherent tranquillity amid the anxieties of the contemporary world.

 

Each image in this evolving series captures Prothero's quest to depict peace within the present disquietude. Meticulous exploration of quiet details invites viewers to connect with the artwork, fostering a link between observer and the profound stillness of nature.

 

"Experiments in Living" signifies a new area of contemplation between external landscapes and internal states. Prothero's visual dialogue encourages reflection on serene environments' transformative potential in countering contemporary anxiety. The series becomes a visual narrative of the artist's search for a deeper connection with surroundings, inviting the audience on a contemplative journey through nature's quietude.
