A vintage strongman — bathing suit, bald head, the particular physique of someone who has spent considerable time lifting things that should not be lifted — holds a full-sized crocodile aloft with one arm, his body arching beneath the weight and the wildness of it, his expression suggesting that this is simply Tuesday.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe crocodile, for its part, appears to be going along with it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe ground is a fever dream of yellow-green — acid, swampy, the colour of somewhere genuinely dangerous — shot through with vertical drips of orange and red that fall like heat, like warning, like the aftermath of something. Dark red handprints cluster to the left in groups, bleeding downward, the marks of hands that were here before this moment and will be here after. The spray paint bleeds at the edges of the figure, gives the whole composition the quality of something witnessed rather than arranged.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is painting with the scale and energy of a carnival banner, the technical ambition of a serious studio work and the humour of someone who understands that strength and absurdity have always been companions.

Not metaphorically blue. Literally, chemically, impossibly blue — the result of swimming in a river contaminated with synthetic dye leaking from a clothing factory upstream.

The panels spread the composition across six feet of birch wood — the triptych form of altarpieces, of sacred narratives, of things that require more than one panel to contain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a painting about the world as it actually is — which is to say simultaneously scientifically explicable, cosmically indifferent, industrially catastrophic and completely, heartbreakingly beautiful.

The earliest frozen moment. The first time light was used to stop time and look at something that would otherwise have kept moving.

That is the idea and it is everywhere in this painting — the allium heads are galaxies, the thistle heads are nebulae, the whole composition a universe of biological complexity rendered at a scale that makes the cosmic and the botanical indistinguishable from each other.
