Artist Talk
Artist Talk: The Art of Living – Memory, Ritual and the Everyday with James Drinkwater
“Painter, maker, father, and collector of moments, James Drinkwater brings to the canvas the textured residue of a life deeply lived. In this intimate VIP talk and Q&A, Drinkwater will explore his artistic philosophy—how food, family, objects, and rituals shape his multidisciplinary practice. From his residencies abroad to everyday exchanges in the kitchen, he translates memory and ritual into lyrical abstractions.
Gain insight into his use of materials, the crossover between painting and sculpture, and the emotional undercurrents of his work. More than a discussion on technique, this is a reflection on the sacredness of the ordinary in art.”
