In a career spanning more than forty years, Henson's extraordinary images arrest moments of vulnerability and reveal the world through the lens of classicism. Henson's sublime imagery captures the abstract dimension of objects and figures by universalising the subject.
There is a powerful sense of mystery within the images that is heightened by the artist's impressionistic approach, romantic vision, and his signature use of chiaroscuro.
'What we feel about love, ageing, beauty, longing, fear, death and so on teaches us individually and collectively about our place in the world... Indeed, for me art is the highest form of education because it is profoundly empathetic and at its best it always recommends the truth and as Plato said, 'beauty is the splendor of truth'. - Bill Henson
