DescriptionMcManus studied BA Fine Art: Painting at Wimbledon College of Arts. Exploring an interest in relationships between man-made forms and their environments, his painting eerily depicts the landscape as a stage for a brutalist architectural monument: an empowered historical form. The absence of life suggests a forgotten structure ready to be engulfed by its vast surroundings.
