New works by Peter Yates
Peter Yates’ paintings invite us to pause and experience a sense of calm. In a world shaped by constant noise and negative news, these works offer a space for stillness, reflection, and quiet attention.
Through light, atmosphere and the arrangement of imagery, the paintings suggest moments in time and space where a sense of quietude can emerge. They encourage us to reconnect with beauty and with the restorative power of looking closely.
Inspired by the natural environment in Scotland and by memories of travel abroad, Yates’ work draws on observation, imagination, and recollection. Together, these paintings create a poetic and contemplative world, inviting viewers to slow down and find moments of stillness, beauty, and reflection.
