ABOUT ANTON

Anton Byrne-Carter, born in 1989 in the northwest of England, is a British artist known for his abstract works that bridge classical influences with contemporary sensibilities. Drawing from the masterpieces of Dutch and Baroque painting traditions and the evocative narratives of Greek mythology, Byrne-Carter’s art is a reinterpretation of timeless stories and aesthetics, engaging modern audiences with themes of beauty, consequence, and choice. His creative process reveals a unique journey through personal experience resulting in artworks that echo the distortion and fluidity of memory.

 

In his latest work, Byrne-Carter embraces a minimalist abstraction, as seen in his subtle yet evocative compositions. This series suggests the fleeting nature of memories and visions that meditation intensifies. His use of faded, ghostly lines and indistinct forms imbues the works with a sense of ambiguity, allowing viewers to interpret the shapes through their own subjective experiences. The absence of clear imagery is intentional, inviting introspection and creating a meditative space where classical themes dissolve into abstract forms.

 

Byrne-Carter’s work invites viewers to explore the tension between past and present, reality and memory, as he reimagines classical themes in a language of abstraction. Collectors in the UK, the Middle East, Europe, and Japan have embraced Byrne-Carter’s work, recognising it as a profound exploration of classical art’s enduring relevance within a modern framework.
