In this episode, James Mortimer talks about the reasons behind his works that depict strange, primeval and dramatic landscapes whose inhabitants have cast aside moral constraints and where humans and animals share equal status. James talks about how a dull, industrial town fed his imagination from early childhood, his travels in eastern Europe including Ukraine, the importance of humour in art, his elaborate process and how his influences range from Renaissance paintings to children’s books.
