"Malcolm Teasdale, Chips Under The Lamp, 2012" by Malcolm Teasdale
Much of Malcolm's work has arisen from the industrial history of his local area in the North East of England. His love of these locations and his genuine admiration for the scenes and characters he recreates comes across in the strong sense of community and camaraderie that defines all of his highly evocative work. It is the honesty of his approach that sets his work apart from his contemporaries however; he has an extraordinary ability to convey the reality of everyday life and the atmosphere of each scene, rather than simply to recreate the literal image.
