Art: Updates from Paul Wackers, whose lovely work defies categorising

Date
1 May 2014

It’s been four whole years since we last posted about Paul Wackers, and four years is the same amount of time it takes to be conceived, gestate, be born, and learn to walk and talk, so it makes sense that he’s also created truckloads of new work in that time. I don’t know what the images are of, exactly; often collage, usually mixed media and occasionally reminiscent of a lovely interior complete with houseplants and bunting. The beauty of this work, though, is that you don’t need to know. Each piece makes perfect sense on its own, having achieved a playful kind of balance not entirely dissociated from, art, graphics or illustration. Cheers to you Paul!
