About the Item

Letting Go [2022] original and hand signed by the artist Acrylic on canvas Image size: H:57 cm x W:57 cm Complete Size of Unframed Work: H:80 cm x W:80 cm x D:2cm Frame Size: H:83 cm x W:83 cm x D:3cm Sold Framed Please note that insitu images are purely an indication of how a piece may look "Letting Go" This painting speaks of exhaling, of letting go of expectations, stress, anxieties. A sense of relief and release. A limited, semi neutral colour palette with just the small touches of coral and russet balance the strong value contrast of the design of light against dark areas. This painting comes framed in a contemporary natural wood tray frame, ready to hang. Alison is a British contemporary abstract artist and painter, based in Somerset, England. With a degree in textile design, and many years of art making behind her, paintings are developed with a primary focus on colour, pattern and texture. She loves to explore ideas around visual contrasts and creates work that makes a bold visual statement from a distance, but also has richly layered surfaces full of depth and interest close to. Work is made intuitively, drawing on decades of visual memory. Inspiration can be a mood or feeling, a memory, a place, even a symbol or the power of a word or a phrase. This may sometimes be incorporated in the finished piece in the form of visible or abstracted text.

  • Untitled 0042, Original painting, Atmospheric Art, Industrial North, Romanticism
    Located in Deddington, GB
    Inspiration for my work comes from internalised imagery absorbed throughout her childhood in Northumberland and the North East of England. Images of declining industry, the closing of coal mines, abandoned shipyards and other associated heavy industries loomed large across the landscape.The atmosphere of loss, sadness was as palpable as the smell of smoke, tar and coke from the power stations. Philippas work consists of remembered imagery of past landscapes combined with the pastoral landscape in which she lives. The muted palette references the industrial while suggested imagery reflects the rural. Work produced references both worlds combining two genres, marrying post contemporary modernism with elements of classical romanticism. Two genres, two generations of artistic movements intersect with each other, creating a place where contradictions co exist. Disjunctive kinds of everything, hidden in plain sight, create a realm in which one can lose oneself. Implied abstract imagery reveals conflict between beauty and desolation ,whilst Romanticism and Modernism combine with clashing qualities of drawing and painting. Images develop through a series of intuitive acts. Repeated applications of thin films of ink and paint build depth and patina. Layers are often removed by washing and scrubbing, revealing a palimpsest of faded marks and former painterly decisions, exposing the underbelly, vulnerable and tender.

Work produced references both worlds combining two genres, marrying post contemporary modernism with elements of classical romanticism. Connections. Through Philippas current and ongoing line of enquiry several connections are being explored which are both real and notional. The fusing of genres, the industrial and the pastoral which combine elements of classical romanticism and post contemporary modernism, these relate to her past and her present surroundings. Rarely associated elements of drawing and painting are combined on canvas adding to the narrative of her personal story. Work produced displays...
