David Carpanini’s drawings,paintings and etchings are almost entirely devoted to the presentation of the industrial scene of South Wales. Lonely figures, bleak hills, ramshackle backyards, perching terraces of houses, dominating chapels and ragged roadside sheep are the images to which he is faithful and to which he attributes the development of his creative imagination.
