In the Spring of 2024, Wilson completed a 3-month artist residency at La Maison de Beaumont, in Pertuix-de-Beaumont, France. This residency allowed him to devote extensive time to a new body of work highlighting the textures of the village surrounding him. Wilson’s recent work highlights his fascination with the weathering and texture of found and created objects. According to his husband, Wilson is a “slut for texture”. Heavy impasto is combined with unconventional techniques (pressure-washing canvas, heat guns, and other means of distressing) to form works that appear neglected or abandoned. Layers upon layers of material are added, removed, and re-added to give pieces a sense of history and progression.
