A line of colourful flowers have risen up to confront the viewer, their florets having become dead-pan staring eyes. Long stems undulate and gyrate, as if they have life of their own as do the animated tendrils. " Have a look for example at Keith Pointing’s oil paintings. Some of his paintings are so imaginative that you sometimes feel that you are flicking through a Dr Seuss book, but Pointing’s pieces are not aimed at young viewers. Have a closer look at ‘Plenty of Fish’, 2018. Here there is such a clever and witty play around the title and the female organs of the fish. Another one that makes you smile is ‘Looking at you’. The big-eyed fleshy flowers are definitely eying you up. And ‘Life cycle’ has a hint of Dali-ness to it; like Dali, Keith also likes to place absurd encounters and objects in a mysterious landscape. So isn’t it a positive thing that artists inject their artworks with absurdity and humour? Can’t we all sometimes use a bit of escapism and laughter during our daily struggles? And when you hang your bit of escapism on the wall, it will always make you smile at the end of a difficult day." Tammy Woodrow

He graduated with a BA (Hons) in Graphic Design from Middlesex University and has exhibited in the ICA in London and the Künstlerhaus, Vienna. Prints of his drawings from his book The Inkspot Monologues which sold worldwide and were exhibited in the Freud Gallery in London. He uses surrealism and humour to satirise the human condition, environmental justice and societal issues. He works primarily in oil paints and he uses motifs and layers of iconography from the natural, the classical world and visual memory. In each work, he experiments using the language of form, colour, shape, space, and volume. These works explore the dichotomies of childhood and adulthood, the conscious and unconscious, and the seen and unseen in various emphasis and combinations. Biography He exhibited paintings with the Henry Boxer Gallery, London, alongside Scottie Wilson and George Grosz, the Espacio Gallery, 2017, Shoreditch, London, the Churchgate Gallery, Porlock, 2018, curated by artist David Harrison (Victoria Miro Gallery), alongside other artists, including Peter Doig, Issac Julien CBE RA, and Abigal Lane.
