Finding beauty and intrigue in the lesser celebrated parts of the Sussex coastline.
Beauty can just as easily be found in the web of industrial machinery. Chris is equally intrigued by the shapes and geometry of the industrial Sussex coastline, as he is by its more picturesque beaches and piers. By deconstructing this working grain silo, he has created an image of simple striking clean lined geometric shapes.

Chris Ketchell is an animation director, printmaker and sculptor living and working in East Sussex. His style is graphic and reductive. He is inspired by the film, tv and music of the 1960's and works with the bold graphics and vibrant colours synonymous with this era. Chris' work explores the craft and beauty in everyday objects, uncelebrated people and places. Whether it be in the deconstruction of a piece of coastal industrial machinery, or in celebration of the sculpture of a plastic toy soldier, attention to detail and the quality of finish are always key to his work.
