EXHIBITION
How do I feel now?
This exhibition brings together new work – animation, drypoints, drawings and video projection – made in response to Odyssey, Chris’s 100m epic charcoal drawing.
Chris exhibited Odyssey in 2025 at Corpus Christ Church, Brixton. The drawing explored the subconscious, and a vivid landscape of dreams. By using that subconscious space, Chris interpreted and made tangible deeply hidden feelings.
Combining video projection, animation, drawing and printmaking, in How do I feel now? Chris invites the viewer to explore his life (and maybe to reflect on their own!) through the stories he weaves, using memory, bringing past into the present, and referencing the everyday.
“..this notion of home – I’m forever looking for this idea of home. Home like a sense of belonging. So always trying to find a place where I feel… that’s always an ongoing search. Never quite getting there. And the drawing is part of that exploration, really.”
