Neil Canning is a leading UK contemporary artist, part of the new generation of St Ives artists. Originally from Oxfordshire, Neil spent 7 years in Wales before moving to Cornwall in 1997. Neil lives and works in a small village outside Marazion, near Penzance. The coast and moors of this beautiful and dramatic peninsular give his work colour, space and a sense of drama.

Neil carries the torch of Cornish abstract expressionism onwards. His canvases are perfectly balanced: the colours displaying the mood and vibrancy of the land, the mark-making the boldness and flux of the atmosphere. He expertly conveys Cornwall’s bouncing light, capricious weather fronts and ocean thrum. This exhibition, Finding Freedom at Gallery East, is a masterclass in composition and emotion.
