Tom French is a highly collectible and well-regarded British artist whose powerful monochromatic canvases were driven by his efforts to engage with the subconscious, and a rigorous pursuit of truth. French’s paintings are a visual discourse on Dualism, a philosophy that posits that the mind and the brain are not identical, that the mind is the seat of consciousness and the brain the seat of intellect.
"Each scene is a snapshot of a story, with a dynamic between the characters working on various levels, which ties into the bigger picture; there's much more to these images than illusion alone." - Tom French
