About artist: Nathan Lowry is an Irish artist based in Co. Dublin, Ireland. Nathan specialises in acrylic paints and uses a contemporary approach with shapes and colour to achieve his compositions. His work gives focus to figures in everyday life and insights to intimacy. The paintings evoke a certain surreal atmosphere which urges the viewer to interpret meaning within the artwork. His work has been shown in prominent galleries such as the Royal Hibernian Academy, Outset Gallery and he has also been featured in the Irish Independent art column and heat one of the popular portraiture competition, 'Portrait Artist of the Year' 2022. His work is concentrated on figural painting. In particular his focus has been on the lack of representation and varying aspects of life within galleries and media, especially considering romantic art or scenes with subliminal references to affection. He was seeing nearly exclusively heterosexual based love scenes. He wondered where all of the artwork was that included people with different backgrounds and who did not fit the status quo. He wanted to see art which represented love that involved other characters who could be relatable to a wider audience, specifically those within the LGBTQ community. It is a goal of his to subvert negative associations with people of varying backgrounds based on societal prejudice. His paintings often include surrealism and can have a dream-like quality. He greatly admires surrealism in his artistic influences. A few of his inspirations would be Leonora Carrington, Joseph. C. Leyendecker and Gustav Klimt.
