Paul Rooney

Exploring themes of the passage of time, personal and artistic regrets, failure, abandonment and irretrievable loss, Paul Rooney has created a newly commissioned video exhibition for Durham Art Gallery.

Using County Durham and the film 'Umberellas of Cherbourg' as his inspiration Rooney's work centres on a petrol station in the County and explores a dialogue between a fictional artist and his former lover and their relationship to the site.
