Paul du Moulin
Note from Seeger Gallery: Paul’s work is incredibly varied, from subtle landscapes, fine etchings, haunting portraits; to surreal urbanscapes. He is a true talent with a fine eye for detail and beautifully balanced composition. It is no surprise that he is a multi award-winning artist.

Paul's work can be viewed as a series of cultural artifacts, created as a result of a particular sensitivity to the subtle shifts constantly occurring in both the natural and man-made world. The juxtaposition of these themes is often manifested in his choice of found objects. By re-contextualising found objects and frequently combining them with his own drawings, paintings and photographs, he pulls together apparently disparate ideas in a formal way with a central theme. This is an investigation into human relationships with the evolving and affected natural world.
