Joe Lichtenstein
“Painting. Theatre. Animation.
They’re all expressions of the same thing”
Joe Lichtenstein moves between worlds—painting, theatre, animation—each a doorway into the same strange place. His work flickers between opposites: stillness and motion, solitude and connection, grief and joy. A frozen moment shifts. The inanimate breathes. Shadows move beneath the surface.
Within the darkness, there is light—color, movement, the thrill of something breaking through. Whether on canvas, on stage, or in stop-motion, Lichtenstein searches for the place where stillness turns to motion, where the unconscious speaks.
“Where does movement end and stillness begin? I want to find it.”

THE BIGGEST PICTURE. YET…
In 2023 Joe was commissioned to make his first large scale work in collaboration with artist Lara Jaques.The brief was to make a something that was inspired by Bristol, and incorporating an evocation of the coastline that both artists grew up on.
It is 25ft high and 27ft wide. It took seven days to complete.
The mural is located on St Andrews Road in Bristol, UK. To find it on Google maps, click here.

COLLABORATION
WITH
COR
In 2022 Joe collaborated with new restaurant, COR.
Situated on North Street in Bristol, COR is the creation of one of Bristol‘s finest chefs, Mark Chapman and his wife Karen.
COR is featured in the Michelin guide and has been awarded numerous accolades for its delicious food and amazing dining experience. The food is incredible and I highly recommend you check it out if you’re ever near Bristol. Whilst you’re there you get the added bonus of gazing at my paintings.
