This enlarged image of a flower is fascinating in its perspective. It is stylised and abstracted, so that the flower appears simultaneously near and far from the viewer. This is an impression that Philip Maltman is often able to create in his paintings, where distance and spatial perception are somewhat unclear, but the subject appears perfectly in focus. This piece can be found in the 508 Gallery catalogue, and is exhibited in Philip Maltman’s solo show in June 2022.
