A veteran of the New York art world, Colin Thomson observes in an interview with artist Jim Butler, “It’s a fascinating flushing process, things come in and things go out.” He’s referring to stylistic trends, the artistic landscape, and also literally the shifting geography of where artists live and work. In his second exhibition with High Noon Gallery entitled Unusual Characters, Thomson draws upon experiences both past and present with unfamiliar architecture and it’s interaction with the landscape, augmenting both painting and design principles to expand the language in his nontheistic approach to abstraction.
