Contemporary artist Jayson Lilley works at the forefront of printmaking practices, incorporating painting and collage techniques into his process. His work is known for its urban and architectural focus reproducing iconic structures from the metropolis. His love of modernist, Art Deco and Brutalist architectural design is infectious, bleeding into his own work which is often stark and minimal, with strong impact stripped back palettes often concrete shades of grey complement bold compositional techniques. ‘Trellick Tower Grey’ depicts London’s iconic Trellick Tower, rising up against the sky. Leaving the structure black, Lilley has picked out the lights from the windows in bright shades of yellow, red and blue, while setting the tower against a flat, charcoal grey sky, for a distinctly Pop Art aesthetic.
