Tiger in a Tropical Storm, a summer group exhibition at Louise Alexander Gallery in Porto Cervo, Sardinia, Italy. Exhibited artist highlight: Ryan Mosley Mosley’s visual universe is populated by an array of fantastical characters from harlequins and cabaret dancers, bearded musicians to unknown travellers. These oddball protagonists come together in delightfully inexplicable narratives that evoke a carnival world of surreal nightlife and macabre theatre. Although many of these characters are rooted in every day observation each one springs from the artists own imagination with many appearing recursively throughout Mosley’s work and thus taking on a lived quality. Ryan Mosley (born in 1980, Chesterfield, UK) lives and works in Sheffield 🔗 Click the link in our bio to view the exhibition or contact [email protected] for more information. Images: Ryan Mosley 1.
