Lynch, who lives and works in Quebec, is celebrated for his innovative approach to contemporary landscape painting. Renowned for his depictions of the Canadian wilderness, Lynch has challenged himself with this new body of work, extending his practice into the Scottish landscape. Drawing from a wide range of references, from landscape painting traditions to digital imaging and collage, Lynch constructs complex, multi-layered works that blend the organic and the artificial. His process begins with photographic material or hand-drawn sketches, which are then digitally manipulated before being translated into richly textured paintings on canvas. The result is a unique visual language that fuses geometric structure with gestural mark-making, natural motifs with abstract fields of colour.

In Passing Through, Lynch continues this signature interplay, using the road trip format as a conceptual framework. These paintings are not fixed views, but glimpses, transient and flickering, assembled from memories, maps, and motion. There is a tension between clarity and distortion, surface and depth, that echoes the impermanence of travel and the layered experience of place.
