About the Item
"Carry Me Up To The Place I Once Lazed" is an original piece by Megan Rea made from oil on hand crafted paper. This pieces measures 31.5"h x 43.25"w, is signed en verso and comes with a signed Certificate of Authenticity.
After graduating from the Edinburgh College of Art, Rea received a scholarship to study in Florence. During her time there, her focus shifted from the external features of medieval architecture to the 13th-15th century Italian frescoes adorning church walls. Rea also takes inspiration from paintings made in the Middle Ages as well as gothic design; collisions between the imaginary and the reliquary suggest a rediscovery of a life once lived, or perhaps one yet to be.
During the pandemic when access to art supplies became limited, Rea began working on homemade blended paper, whose malleability, freedom of the form, flexibility, and the array of densities and sizes created exciting opportunities for her work. By shaping the paper from pulp, Rea is able to experiment with irregular forms, giving the paintings the appearance of a preserved ruin. The irregular perimeter of the paintings holds qualities of an eroding exterior and further plays with the idea of synthetic time. The paper surface is pocked, allowing gems of paint from early washes to be caught and shine through the layers applied. Symmetry and multiples are the focus of new paintings, using narratives from Italian Saints as the inspiration for painted stone structures.

Megan Rea (b. 1993) creates work inspired by 13th-15th century Italian frescoes following time spent in Florence on a scholarship. Taking inspiration from paintings made in the Middle Ages and Gothic architecture, collisions between the imaginary and the reliquary suggest a rediscovery of a life lived. Shaping the paper by hand, her paintings imitate the passing of time and reflect the weathering of an old fresco-ed wall. The pocked surface allows gems of paint from early washes to be visible after subsequent layers build up. The irregular perimeter of her paintings holds qualities of an eroding exterior and further plays with the idea of synthetic time. Since graduating from Edinburgh College of Art in 2016 (BA Painting), Megan has exhibited internationally in London, New York and St Tropez, with highlights including RSA New Contemporaries (2017), Cool Fresh Sweet Waters alongside Becky Tucker and Nina Silverberg at The Tub, London (2022), and winning The Morrison Foerster (London) Art Prize 2023.
