This exhibition showcases recent work by Peter Kettle. In May of 2023, Peter travelled to Japan and “The Japan Project - Paintings and Film” was born. The project celebrates and looks at how the Japanese honour their land through ancient pilgrimages and the arts. Over the course of 3 weeks with his roll of canvas, easel and companions, Peter travelled to the northern island of Hokkaido and mainland Honshu to explore Japan's tribal roots, its myriad of heritage sites and to climb Japan's revered volcanoes and landscapes nicknamed 'the playground of the Gods'.  This collection of oils and collages is the fruit of his labours.

Waterfalls to Water-Meadows

  • Google Calendar ICS

In his newest collection, British contemporary artist Peter Kettle revisits and discovers the outstanding natural beauty of Britains landscapes and waterways; journeying across Wales, Scotland and the Cotswolds. A keen rambler, Peter Kettle brings together dramatic scenes from scaling Mt. Cadair Idris in Wales, exploring the Kyle of Tongue along the North Coast of Scotland; and placcid scenes of local Cotswold watermeadows and fields. Working primarily in oils and mixed media, these stunning landscapes and vistas are celebrated by Peter Kettle’s abstract/documentarian approach, visceral textures and evocative use of light on land and water.

The Wykeham Gallery - Everest Basecamp Exhibition

In April 2019, Peter Kettle collected litter throughout a 14 day climb to Basecamp, Everest, to be recycled into enpleinair Oil and Collage paintings. With a large canvas roll strapped to his back, the aim of the project was to evocatively present and honour the landscape artistically, but also draw attention to concerns regarding waste management in the Himalayas, and not just to a recent clean up of Basecamp. Kettle has since gathered the smaller field paintings and sketches to explore an abstract expressionist response to his experience. Large scale canvas work fill the collection with towering snow-capped peaks, winding valleys and vistas over gilded Stupa’s (buddhist prayer statue). The exhibition brings together a documentary, and an expression, of an expedition of mettle and art to the worlds tallest cathedral - Mt. Everest.
