Joseph Loughborough


Joseph Loughborough is UK born artist now residing in Berlin. His charcoal drawings are dark, impulsive and intriguing. You feel the urge to explore these often grotesque and distorted faces and bodies.
From the artist statement;
"Honesty, expressionism and possibly exorcism can be read from Loughborough’s impulsive and intuitive rapid-fire mark making, which strive to grasp a comprehension of the human condition.
Drawing inspiration from various themes concerned with Camus/Kierkegaard's notion of ‘Absurdity’. Each drawing becomes story pursuing a standing point within the concept."

These are from his latest body of work "In the cave we dance".
