Trolove's large scale painted portraits are incredible and begging to be devoured. He says they are a kind of re-membering. 

His work explores the relationships between embodiment and liminal spaces, states of in-between-ness including gender transition and intergenerational memory.

He works with speed, layering the paint with a palette knife while the paint is still wet. Check out his Instagram for some serious artist studio envy and get a behind the scenes look at his process.

Hear him talk about his latest body of work on Saturday 14 October, 2 pm in the gallery.
