2024

About the Item

This exceptional artwork is currently on display and available for sale at Signet Contemporary Art Gallery and online. Fiona Debell's "We Are Family" is a vivid yet minimalist abstract painting that beautifully captures the essence of connection and individuality. Set against a warm and soft white background, the composition features four curving shapes that stretch towards the center of the canvas, almost meeting but separated by a small gap. This deliberate spacing creates a sense of tension and anticipation, emphasizing both unity and distinction. The top two shapes are rendered in contrasting red tones—one a bright, energetic hue and the other a deeper, more subdued shade. These variations in red add a dynamic interplay of warmth and intensity. In contrast, the bottom two shapes introduce a different color palette, with one in a rich mustard yellow and the other in a cool slate grey. The juxtaposition of these colors adds depth and balance to the composition, highlighting the diversity and harmony within the arrangement. The concept behind "We Are Family" explores the themes of togetherness and individuality within a collective. The shapes, each distinct in color and form, symbolize different members of a family or community, each bringing their unique qualities to the whole. The small gap between them suggests the inevitable spaces that exist between individuals, yet their stretching towards the center signifies a shared bond and mutual connection. "We Are Family" is a testament to Fiona Debell's ability to convey profound and relatable themes through minimalist abstraction. The painting's clean lines and vibrant colors make it a versatile piece, perfect for various settings that appreciate the intersection of simplicity and depth. This exceptional work is available for purchase online and at the Signet Contemporary Art Gallery in Chelsea, offering an elegant and meaningful addition to any art collection.

Since 2018, I have been a dedicated, full-time artist. My collection, "Reciprocity," reflects my belief in the interconnectedness of humanity. Each piece is a nuanced conversation about the inherent give-and-take in human relationships, exploring the tensions and dynamics of these interactions. This series breaks them down to their elemental forms, highlighting the intricate dance of life. My art celebrates simplicity, finding complexity within minimalism. This approach creates an interplay of forms and colours that captivates and challenges, with large-scale pieces evoking a spectrum of emotions from introspection to liberation. Inspired by the Hard Edge movement of the 1960s, I explore bold shapes and colours, emphasizing purity of form. My work integrates post-painterly techniques, ensuring brushstrokes are imperceptible and each colour application becomes part of the narrative. This signature approach ensures my art is visually striking and deeply immersive. Each composition, seemingly simple, is a complex construction with profound thematic depth. I am committed to technical precision and conceptual richness, striving to create art that resonates universally, transcending cultural and linguistic boundaries. In essence, my art is a visual journey through life's complexities, embodying the invisible bonds that unite us. With a focus on technical mastery and conceptual depth, I aim to create pieces that communicate globally, connecting and captivating audiences with their underlying message.”- Fiona Debell
