“If there is such a thing as a collective consciousness, then Dexter Dalwood’s paintings are its natural by-product. His works embody our fascination with the private environments… functioning as a substitute for documentation of the secluded worlds they depict… Dalwood’s paintings stem from his own imaginings, enhanced by exhaustive research of eyewitness testimonies, biographies, available imagery and personal memoirs. He distils these varied sources into small and meticulously constructed collages, which he uses as the basis for his paintings.” –
