While Basil Beattie is best known for his abstract paintings featuring architectural motifs, often including stairs, ladders and tunnels, his works on paper have formed an important part of his practice throughout his illustrious career. Psychological and physical complexity abound in the deceptively simple visual language used by Beattie to explore certain preoccupations, such as the passing of time and notions of the journey.

In this multi-tonal print, Beattie explores the idea of travelling through time and space, using tunnels as his primary subject matter. Printed with oil-based inks, this screenprint has a luscious surface quality that is further enhanced by the addition of woodblock printing.
