Synopsis

This book contains all my animal rights artwork - from my first animal rights painting in 2014 'The Ghost Camera', up to 'Journey's End' in late 2019.

'NOW YOU SEE ME' represents an emotional and artistic journey from a tentative beginning which then lead me into an intense immersion into images from the generally unseen world of factory farms.

'The tragedy in your art is astounding. There are very few who can capture this hurt... I am glad I get to glimpse your soul through your art.'

- Karen McFarlin McCabe

'what animal rights art is supposed to be – revolutionary, compelling and instructive.'

- Twyla Francois, animal rights artist and activist

'From the first time I saw it I have been immensely fascinated by Philip's work due to his unique style and fastidious drawing technique. Although the themes are often highly challenging, this is exactly what draws me deeply into these pictures. The scenes almost appear to be three-dimensional, multi layered and tangible and therefore captivate me more intensely than most photographs or painting are able to do. Regardless of whether they show injustices and suffering or peaceful and harmonious situations they make me want to get out and become active. I don’t think that anyone with his heart in the right place who engages with these drawings will be untouched.'

- Steffan Freitag, 'Land der Tiere' animal sanctuary, Germany

'Art is a beautiful means of expression that reaches out to people in a way that logical argument doesn’t always do. It’s a hugely important tool to break down cognitive dissonance and layers of defensiveness and fear of change. It wakes people up - and thus it helps to save animals. It’s like magic.'

- Jane Easton, Vegan Activist
