Theo Crutchley-Mack is a contemporary British artist whose work appears in private and public collections throughout the UK
As a teenager Theo designed a 50 pence coin that was minted into national circulation with royal approval, sparking a clear artistic direction from a young age.
Since graduating from Falmouth University with a sell-out degree show, he has continued to exhibit successfully throughout Wales and Cornwall for 5 years to date.
In 2018 Theo was invited to the sub-Antarctic island of South Georgia where he painted and documented the ruined whaling stations to help fund raiser for the South Georgia Heritage Trust, who work to restore the damaged habitats of native wildlife. The ramshackle quality of these ruins had a significant effect on his work and it's progression.
Theo strives to record the obscure landscape, often abandoned and remote. He spends many hours outside making plein air paintings that feed larger works produced from the comfort of his studio. This exhibition 'Slate, Wood and Land' displays a selection of compositions captured from Theo's explorations of North Wales industrial slate landscapes.
