Peter Stanaway & Kevin Haynes
The Mosaic and Upstairs Galleries
19th April – 20th July 2025
Peter Stanaway and Kevin Haynes are northern artists whose subject matter is primarily concerned with the industrial landscapes and people of the textile mill towns in Lancashire. Both members of MAFA (Manchester Academy of Fine Art), they have exhibited widely both locally and internationally.
While having in common a graphic quality of painted depiction through delineated sections of colour, Peter’s work is reminiscent of the modified cubism of Fernand Léger. He uses the texture of the surfaces he works on to add depth and variation, sometimes exposing the process of building up the image. Kevin simplifies complex images into very carefully mixed sections that create a sense of depth. His faceless workers express their individuality through clothing much like one of his influences, L. S. Lowry.
