The Goldmine was a nightclub on Canvey Island between 1972 and 1989. In its heyday it was the place to be seen, with regulars including Sade, Alison Moyet, and the band Talk Talk. People travelled in coach loads from all over the UK to attend. The resident DJ Chris Hill is known as the UK’s first superstar club DJ.
These works explore the theme of uchronia (alternate history) which is becoming ever more common with the evolution of an unregulated internet and ‘fake history’ being reported or real history not being recorded at all.
None of the scenes pictured actually took place; the references for these paintings have been created using AI. Upon closer inspection many inaccuracies can be seen; an extra limb here, a dislocated hand there as well as social situations that may not have happened back then.
