About

Louis Slater born Chesterfield England 1982 is a contemporary artist based in Sheffield, UK. His practice centres on large-scale abstract paintings that explore the tension between material presence and emotional restraint.

Process

Each work emerges through a slow process of layering and excavation. Slater builds up surfaces over weeks, sometimes months, allowing materials to interact and settle before responding. The finished paintings hold traces of this duration.
