About The Artwork

Patrick Hughes’ Web Bow merges the enchantment of natural patterns with the vivid energy of optical play. A radiant arc of rainbow color forms the structure for a meticulously woven spider’s web, its threads glistening against a deep night sky under the steady gaze of the moon. The composition draws the eye to the contrast between fragility and strength, order and spontaneity, nature and imagination.
The piece invites viewers to reflect on the unseen connections that hold the world together. The rainbow, a symbol of hope and wonder, becomes both scaffold and sanctuary, while the web suggests resilience and the delicate balance of existence. Rendered as an archival pigment print on rich Somerset Satin paper, Web Bow combines Hughes’ sharp conceptual wit with a luminous, almost dreamlike atmosphere.
This work makes a captivating addition for collectors who appreciate art that balances visual delight with layers of symbolic meaning.

About the artist

Patrick held his first solo show in 1961 at the Portal Gallery, London. It was the first one-man show by a Pop Artist, though they were not even called that then. Three and four years later, Hughes made two seminal reverse perspective works, Infinity and Sticking-out Room. But in the 1970s Hughes’ name became synonymous with rainbow paintings, which also became very popular as prints and as postcards; people enjoyed them as decoration, but for Hughes the rainbow represented a solidified experience.

In the late 1980s Hughes revisited exploiting the difference between perspective and reverspective and making space, frozen but mobile. For the last 25 years his 3-D reverspective paintings have been hughesually in demand, exhibited around the world and featured in many public collections. The experience of seeing a Patrick Hughes sculptured painting in reality is really to experience unreality and the paradox of illusory space and movement.
