Peter McDonald is an artist who lives and works in London and Tokyo. He depicts everyday encounters and events with light, bright colors and a sense of humor. People engaged in diverse activities reflect the contemporary world of work and leisure. His figures are inspired by real-life situations. People reading books, having conversations or dreaming appear in his work. Inflated bubble heads in different shapes and colors, with overlapping, transparent effects are trademarks of Peter’s artistic vocabulary.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cIt was a breakthrough for me when I started experimenting with a visual language where heads overlap and the see-through colors of different heads merge. It\u2019s a visual language that signifies the connection and communications between minds,\u201d he says. \u201cIn my mind, there\u2019s a narrative behind every painting that enables me to finish the piece. Once it\u2019s done, it\u2019s free to go out into the world and be interpreted by others.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Peter McDonald is an artist who lives and works in London and Tokyo.
