Paul Nash is my first and special love. The colours, the mix of geometric design with poetic reality, the focus on landscape and dream, the fascination with objects that take on idiosyncratic meaning, puts the viewer into his world. I enjoy the progression from his bleak depiction of the First World War, then his flirtation with surrealism, then his weirdly mystical abstraction of the Second World War, and his almost comforting dreams of death as voyaging flowers.
