to figurative painting, blending abstraction with emotional depth in a way that reflects the evolving landscape of British contemporary art.
In this piece, Hyam uses bold colour contrasts and impasto brushwork to create two haunting, partially abstracted figures. The vivid pink and blue fields echo the confidence and experimentation seen across today’s British art scene, while the fragmented forms explore themes of identity, memory, and human connection — subjects long rooted in Britain’s figurative and narrative art heritage.
Collectors of British art value Hyam’s work for its distinctive painterly language and its ability to merge tradition with innovation. We Will Be Ghosts stands as a compelling example of contemporary British painting, offering both visual impact and emotional resonance.
