Art & Escapism

In its very nature, art is often seen and appreciated as a way to escape the physical world. Throughout history, images of divine harmony, make-believe and nostalgia have long populated canvases. Whether providing solace through minimalism, spectacle through abstraction and optical art, or bringing the viewer into a fastasical realm, an escapist motif can exist in many forms and styles.

Transport yourself to new realms with Sara Hoque's firework displays of colour, Fatima Mian's enchanting streetside scenes, and Richard Pike's lively illustrated landscapes.
