Let Me Remember My Song In The Night by Pete Wheeler
Thoughts from the artist: The idea we live our lives through a snippet of compiled memories. This painting is based of two photos taken at two different locations in Germany, and executed in my Dunedin studio.
Pete Wheeler has never shied away from the big existential issues - death, politics, religion - and indeed, he brazenly wrestle them onto the canvas. The most dramatic or kitschiest imagery takes a back seat to getting pigment down on a surface in a diversity of techniques. Wheeler describes himself as a painter's painter, whose trajectory has taken his from the gothic, slacker, grunge South Island art scene to Berlin, where he drank deeply from echoes of German post-war, neo-expressionist painting.
Wheelers work is held in private and public collections in New Zealand and internationally.
