Out Of Work Angels by Hamish Blakely at Castle Fine Art



Out Of Work Angels by Hamish Blakely 

Castle Fine Art are pleased to present a new body of original work from acclaimed figurative painter Hamish Blakely. Out Of Work Angels raise powerful questions about religion’s place in modern society through the depiction of his elegant angels.

An ardent student of the great masters including Caravaggio, Velasquez and Rembrandt, Blakely believes a great painting will endure long after the initial impact. His latest work voices powerful questions about religion’s place in modern society through the depiction of angels, who are elegant and alluring despite having been forsaken by humanity; no longer called upon for guidance or help. This collection explores the ripple effects in heaven and the fallout on earth.

Following on from a prestigious launch in Mayfair last month, a carefully curated display of work from the Out Of Work Angels collection will be available to view in the gallery from Saturday 18th July - Sunday 2nd August.
