A love letter to all the cars that could have hit me, but didn’t.
KAZLAND (UK) solo exhibition

A brand new collection of works that I began making during my recovery after being hit by a car last year. The accident itself wasn’t too bad but while I was healing it gave me the chance to work (very carefully) on lots of smaller pieces from my home, everything became more careful, and more meticulous. Using pencils and pastels more than paint became very important while I couldn’t move so much. Since then I’ve kept with the same way of working in a more considered fashion, and stepping back from what I’m doing to feel out the next moves. 

The collection focuses on the relationship between mortality and magic – and how we shouldn’t try to control the world around us.

About the Artist:
Kazland, born Callum J. Buckland, 1990, is a self taught, mixed media artist living and working in the south of England. A process based artist, rarely working with a plan, he starts each piece letting the work guide itself until an idea starts to form, and then pursuing it to the end (or a better idea takes over). 

He is known for his distinctive mixed-media works that blend abstraction, symbolism and narrative. Kazland’s draws his influences from folk art, outsider art and surrealism. His art is characterised by unconventional shadows, shifting perspectives and bold colour contrasts. He lets each new piece evolve organically, with colours and forms transferring between canvases, reflecting a dynamic exploration of visual language.


Exhibition dates: September 5-October, 2025 Anno Domini.
