Ray Richardson's works are more than just a mirror of everyday life. His subjects are drawn from his own experience of living and working in London, drawing on the musical language of Scott Heron and Marvin Gaye, the pulp history of James Ellroy and the motivation of Cinema Noir. In 'This Sporting Life', Ray's portrayed a boxing match in a long horizontal format, giving the impression of a panorama, taken from the edge of the ring as though we are viewing it in at the stadium in real time. The work is an etching which is then handpainted in watercolour by the artist.
