WELCOME TO JEREMY SCOTT-MILLER

“Everywhere you look teeth are sinking into necks, claws are being embedded into backs, eyes are narrowing and fangs are showing. In each painting is brightly lit like an aquarium the mutated survivors of the animal kingdom pat on a gladiatorial display for outsiders. This exhibition also boats a very strange, very exotic beauty. The colours are bright, deadly and irresistible. A blue bear attacks a pink bird. Three red-eyed eels attempt to tie themselves into a reef knot against a mediterranean blue sky. There are constant reminders of british surrealism from between the walls of Edward Wansworth’s nautical pictures, of Tristram Hillier and Paul Nash. Then as now, the art seemed to be airless, every one seemed uneasy, waiting. This first one man show reveals Jeremy Scott-Miller to be an important and jumpy artist"
