"Building on a long tradition of European landscape painting Joy Moore presents these richly glowing landscapes evoking wistful and emotional connections ... Moore's landscapes take the viewer to imaginary places. It's the hills and shores of Scotland, Ireland and Italy that provide the architecture but Joy gives them life, sublime colour and layers of meaning. It is only through this intensly personal prism that these pieces acquire a deeply thoughtful and reflective quality. Here we see the mind of a poet a work. But with paint rather than words."  Whisper Gallery, London 2021
