Chris Shaw Hughes
British artist Chris Shaw Hughes creates photorealistic drawings and paintings that document pivotal moments of history in specific places. His highly intricate pencil drawings resemble black and white photographs and have a tangible sense of nostalgia to them. Sometimes focusing on scenes that allude to trauma and tension, and at other times conveying moments of serenity, Chris gives each scene he depicts a compelling sense of depth. Whether capturing dramatic and dynamic portraits or depicting aerial landscapes, Chris’ technique is both observant and honest, allowing him to reflect the atmosphere of any given scene.

Chris studied for his BA and MA degrees at the University of Brighton and graduated in 2010. Prior to this, Chris had a long and successful career in advertising. Although he became disillusioned with the advertising industry, Chris’ interest in the presentation of information in the media remains central to his practice, with a specific intrigue in the notion of collective memory. The photographic nature of Chris’ subjects makes for artworks that are packed with themes of history, nostalgia and trauma.
J

The insider Jo Baring says:

Chris uses his impeccable draughtsmanship to create images which speak directly to the viewer. We are so used to seeing photographs of people and places destroyed by human actions or nature that many of us have become immune to their strength. Through drawing these images, Chris makes them more haunting and powerful. By using such a traditional, and personal, method to create images of modern-day trauma, Chris manages to produce stunning and thought-provoking works of art.

My experience with Rise Art has been wonderful. I was kindly informed about the status of my purchase and delivery. And the two works of art by Julia Shanaytsa's work is wonderfully inspiring and speaks to me deeply. Thank you. I'm really looking forward to taking the artwork to the framer and hanging it up in my home soon.

I was initially a little skeptical about buying art from the other side of the world and having it shipped internationally but honestly, this has been one of the smoothest, easiest purchases I’ve ever made. From start to finish, the service was phenomenal. I was kept informed throughout the entire process and was even reminded ahead of time about the customs fee. The artwork was so carefully packaged and arrived completely unscathed. I’m absolutely thrilled with the whole experience and would definitely purchase through Rise Art again.

Really impressed by the service, regular communications and quality of the artwork received. The website was easy to view and shop from with lots of relevant information to help with artwork selection. I received regular email updates which was really useful as it kept me in the know at all times. I could anticipate the tax payment and delivery. Thank you so much.

Buying my first piece of art online felt like a big deal, and Rise Art made it an exceptional experience from start to finish. Their collection is massive—every style, every format, something for literally every kind of space and vibe. Meredith from the Rise Art team was in touch the whole way through, from when I hit “purchase” to when the piece landed on my doorstep. It felt thoughtful and personal, which isn’t what you expect with online shopping. Safe to say this won’t be my last piece from them.
