“Each individual is alone, cut off. Each wonders how others cope with life.”
- Philip Surrey
The work of Philip Surrey often focuses on anonymous characters who, while sharing space, feel separate from one another. This sense of aloneness is not despairing, however, as Surrey perceives it with the warmth and sympathy of a humanist who shares the circumstance of his subjects. A large part of Surrey’s body of work is pastel on paper, and that approach seems to inform his use of oil paint. A rich though gently-blended palette and soft edges pervade the work, which portrays the poignancy of the delicate balance between our separateness and our connectedness.
