Travel back in time and head to Hampshire to wonder at the gigantic dinosaurs as contemporary artist Dave White presents ‘Extinct’ at Kiklo Spaces.
 
Breathing new life into a childhood obsession with Dinosauria, ‘Extinct’ is a series of works that have taken form through lifelong research and the imagination of White. Starting as a pencil to paper in small sketchbooks, White worked from skeletons and specimens. Developing these studies and harnessing their personality over time, White presents large-scale and rich oil paintings that span a lifetime from the artist and the world. 
 
“For the past decade I have created works that focus on the inhabitants of the natural world, their beauty is something we take for granted in the abstracted world we live in. Their fragility and scarcity and their fight for survival has been the catalyst and focus of my work.” – Dave White
 
Produced in secrecy over 18 months and hiding in the confines of White’s studio, these paintings now stand firm in a new environment at Kiklo Spaces. With some paintings standing over 7ft tall make way to Hampshire to stand in the presence of these immense reptiles, as White imprints the beauty of what could be lost in our world today.
