“I started this group of paintings from a place of reverence: reverence for the memory of a landscape experienced, a landscape lost and finally a landscape recreated. Memory is the vehicle by which my work is best created.” - Peter Brooke
Peter Brooke
Peter Brooke has exhibited his landscape-based paintings regularly for the past fifteen years in Boston, in New York, and in many other sites throughout New England and along the East Coast. During this time the work has evolved considerably, from depictions of dark, foreboding Delaware wetlands to vaulting atmospheres gathering above the Irish coast to inventions, in the vocabulary of the Vermont hill country, in which trees appear to be forming out of thin air or dissolving out of existence.
