"A definitive statement of contemporary coastal art, 'Hear Takes Flight' served as the prestigious centrepiece for Lucy Young’s 2026 collection at the Affordable Art Fair, London.
Spanning a commanding 1.5m x 1.5m, this original canvas offers a rare, expansive perspective of a large coastal summer scene. Developed in collaboration with renowned photographer Karl Davies, the work translates his keen aerial eye into a rhythmic, sensory experience of the British summer.
Lucy utilises a sophisticated 'confetti' palette—a deliberate application of vibrant, impasto strokes that mirror the joyful movement of the summer crowds. This sea of human activity is set against the vast, translucent turquoise of the bay, creating a powerful dialogue between the intimacy of the shoreline and the immense scale of the Atlantic.
This is a physical work of depth and luminosity. Every heavy ridge of paint captures the celebrated coastal light, making it a legacy acquisition for any serious collector of modern British seascapes."
