Christian Hook won Sky Arts Portrait Artist of the Year in 2014 — the resulting commission, a portrait of Alan Cumming, now hangs in the National Galleries of Scotland alongside wo rk by Botticelli and Rembrandt. Born in Gibraltar and trained at Middlesex University and the Royal College of Art, Hook is preoccupied with time and motion: the way a face or a figure exists across several instants simultaneously, each layer of transparent paint a different moment in a single image.Pasos — Steps — is an earlier work in Hook's catalogue, rooted in the figurative tradition that runs through his practice even as the technique grows more experimental. A figure caught mid-movement, the layers of paint recording each position simultaneously: not a motion blur but a layered truth, the way memory holds a moment rather than a camera. An accessible entry point to Hook's work at £595.
