ROB AND NICK CARTER
Revolve
15 June 2010 - 31 July 2010


Rob and Nick Carter have been working together as artistic collaborators for over twelve years. A married couple living and working in London, their artwork displays a central preoccupation the tenets of light, colour and form. They have worked across many mediums including painting, photography, light installations and film.

In their recent works the artists abandon traditional paint and canvas and instead employ light sensitive paper. In complete darkness the image is incrementally built through the gradual application of ‘painted light’. The Carters are essentially pioneering an approach where they paint with light, capturing form outside of the normal parameters of photography.
