Jonathan Dalton’s world of art is filled with Proustian metaphor
The title of one of the works in this exhibition, The Impossibility of Swans, could just as easily be the Impossibility of Jonathan Dalton. This is an artist, who paints with such realist finesse, with distortions and refractions all accounted for, that no equivocation is present. Yet his works are rife with misdirection and metaphor.
