James Owens' work delicately balances figuration and abstraction, delving into repetition while featuring an experimental style that incorporates a rich variety of brush strokes and mark-making techniques.

In his works, Owens seamlessly blends memory, heritage, contemporary culture, and imagination, weaving entirely new narratives that flourish in moments of ambiguity. Viewers are introduced to a world of outsiders infatuated with the unknown, eager to believe in something more. Owens conjures imagined landscapes and figures deeply engaged in the acts of searching and experiencing, achieved through a wide range of painting techniques, allowing abstracted elements to fade and form within the canvas. ...
