portrait of a young hero whose image has remained impressed on the artist's visual conscienceness... (2004) Картина - Toby Wright

Toby Wright currently runs a practice in psychological therapy along side his career as a full time artist. He studied art as part of a Bachelor of Art degree at the University of Cape Town and at the University of South Africa. Prior to running his therapy practice, Toby also taught art for nineteen years at a secondary educational level. His work focuses on Hybridisation - the process of his work being to find an original source from well-known history paintings within the framework of male heterosexual hegemony, by imposing new ideas onto an old order. Although the narrative aspects of his titles are often witty and humorous, they reveal the sardonic and paradoxical complexities of gay archetypal subjects, fusing them with a deep sense of melancholy.
