THE ARTIST'S STORY
The Skiing Chieftain
❖
Richard Levine
Richard Levine's work reimagines recognisable figures, histories and cultural icons through collage, pattern and colour, creating stylised abstractions that offer a fresh perspective on familiar stories.
In this unique commission he reimagines the life of Sir Ivar Colquhoun, a beloved Laird and Chief, forging together an archival image of the man himself, historic documents and landscape through interpretive digital manipulation, layered with contemporary colour and pattern to bring this remarkable story into the present.
