Patrick Michael Fitzgerald, b.1965

Swarms the Moth, 2010

Patrick Michael Fitzgerald’s work demonstrates the dynamism of material in contemporary practice. The contoured layout created by the overlay of white on white in ‘Swarms the Moth’ creates a meshwork whereupon the artist transposes his memories. A strong linearity to the work also speaks of timelines and the immediacy of painting.
