The Bouquet
By
Steven Ingman
2013
Steven Ingman’s painting ‘The Bouquet’ depicts one of the surviving engines from a B29 Superfortress that crashed in 1948 on the mountain Bleaklow, killing all 13 crewmembers. The wreckage, left as a remembrance, is re interpreted through the paintings composition. Ingman combines the bleak mountainous landscape and rusting mechanical wreckage in a realist yet painterly fashion, generating a unique interpretation of this environment, creating an otherworldly landscape that is ambiguous with notions of post apocalypse and science fiction.
