Christian Mushenko's 'Longing' series of lensless images is being exhibited at Fox Gallery in Prague





















In Christians Words:  

“With each image an unfocused view of the world, there is a more basic response to light, creating an abstract colour field image. The lack of focus in each artwork removes us from the actual subject in front of us. Instead it hints at the mysterious, often unclear vision of our futures, made up of our internal desires and longing. 

“They are landscapes of the mind, depicting moments felt, rather than seen, things wished for but not known.

“It is a great honour to be invited to show Longing at the Fox Gallery as it has a great ethos of enriching lives through art to seasoned art lovers as well as those new to their art discovery journey. Through all mediums, their aim is to enrich lives and inspire people to realise that art is a part of our lives and life is art. To be included in this mission is humbling.

Longing was a natural progression from my earlier exploration of seascapes, enabling me to directly address the mystery in the eye of the viewer. We see what we would like to, or even need to see, and this is where the longing for our past, present and future comes from.”
