Retrospective Part II, Selected Work. “My work alludes, amongst other things, to fracturing and fragmentation of life in our time” – he stated at the end of the study for the Master of Fine Art Degree at the University of Ulster in 1988.1 Over the years Livingstone has worked in paint, plaster, metal, print and film in two dimensions and three dimensions. Different mediums symbolise different meanings, the art containing visual meaning to life experienced. The works in this exhibition cover five decades from the 1970s.
