‘volcano’ (2022) is Billy Childish’s multi-layered, earthy limited edition screenprint for Greenpeace 50 Years. Childish is often inspired by his natural surroundings and the rudimentary power of landscape and the elements with volcanoes featuring often in his work. Known for his introspective, autobiographical, and deeply emotional paintings, Childish works quickly and intuitively, making spare marks on raw canvas that leave much of it visible.
Billy Childish is an extraordinary and prolific artist. His paintings, woodcuts, poetry, writing and music share a common acerbic honesty that, rather than being nombrilistic, is deeply compelling and idiosyncratic. Childish's practice is informed by a tireless curiosity for themes as varied as war, the history and topography of his local and personal environment, social protest, hill walking and religious philosophy. Without the need for validation or approval from the art world, Childish has developed an authentic, independent and defiant position within culture that is admired by many worldwide.
