About the Item
34.5 X 35 Inches framed
This piece is featured in A’Court’’s 2024 solo exhibition at Susan Eley Fine Art titled, “Keeping Memories”.
Artist Biography:
Angela A’Court was born in London, UK. She attended the West Surrey College of Art and Design, UK, Parsons School of Art and Design, New York and Goldsmiths’ College London BA (Hons) Fine Art Textiles. After graduating from Goldsmiths’ College, A’Court worked as an interior designer for an architectural practice and then independently as a designer. Her work has been recorded in various English magazines, including The Sunday Times, Homes and Gardens, House and Gardens and Traditional Interiors. Her work has also appeared in books such as Pure Pastel, Drawing and Painting, Modern Rustic and Interiors by Design.
Throughout her years as a designer, A’Court always had a sketchbook in hand and continued to paint. In 2002, she decided to put design to one side and return to painting full time. Since then, she has regularly exhibited her work in the UK at venues such as The Pastel Society, London UK, The Summer Exhibition at the Royal Academy, London UK, The Discerning Eye, as well as independent galleries. In 2003, A’Court moved to the US, where she now lives and works in New York City.
Artist Statement:
For this show, the work is concerned with the simple beauty of nature.
David Whyte, poet and philosopher writes that “we have so many allies in this world, including just the color blue in the sky.”
Within each painting, I am drawn in to the intricate universe of each petal, leaf or flower stem, noting the variation of colors or perhaps the striations of a vein that describe structure and form.
The work is guided by tactile observation and research into the materiality of the pastel medium: observation and memory of both object and material. When painting a flower, I will hold the stem in my hand enabling me to turn it around physically so there is a fluid interaction between object and medium, affording a more active rendering.
The paintings are a semblance of worlds within worlds: The way the roots of a hyacinth curl to describe a glass container, or the way flower stems in a vase create an abstract painting within a painting. Overall, the work is an ongoing conversation between these elements and a contemplation of the integrity of nature.
