James Peck : The Journey - Author and artist James Peck, born in the Falkland Islands - or Islas Malvinas as known in the Spanish speaking world, has after 20 years finally published extracts and works from his journals. Released first in Los Angeles and - as described by Pablo Baler from CalState LA 'allowing us a glimpse into the creative unconscious of an artist who has always been ahead (and to the sides) of his time' the journals reveal an intimacy seldom seen. 'Since the beginning of his career and to the dismay of nationalists and folklorists, Peck has always transcended the limitations of geographical or even historical loyalties.' Prose, drawings and correspondence all illustrate a life seemingly far from these shores yet familiar perhaps to us all in it's search for meaning.
