The Watcher - Kate Brinkworth, photorealist, dice, casino, black and white, art
By Kate Brinkworth
Located in London, GB
Kate Brinkworth (b.1977)
The Watcher (Black and White No. 2)
2013
oil on canvas
90 x 135 cm
Price:
£8,400 GBP (inc. 20% UK VAT)
Provenance:
Direct from the artist’s studio
Notes:
Kate Brinkworth undertook her artistic training at Nottingham Trent University, and graduated in 2000 with first class honours. She rapidly began exhibiting her work, and her first major solo show took place in 2001 at Britart Gallery, London. Her success led to further exhibitions across the country and abroad, and she began featuring regularly in several international art fairs and won numerous awards. These include the Westgate Prize (2004), and a commission from GUS headquarters in Mayfair.
Kate Brinkworth's painting stems from her curiosity in films, particularly those directed by or in the style of Hitchcock. She is particularly inspired by effects created though experimentation with focus, and repeatedly photographs her still lifes with various shutter speeds, camera angles and lighting to find the optimum composition. Brinkworth's style uses the language of film, advertising and photography to create these unique images; her visits to Las Vegas have developed her interest in the representation of objects associated with vice. Painted in varying degrees of focus, her expert technique deceives the viewer into believing the work is a photograph, due to the realism of her subject matter and style, and the thin application of paint which gives a smooth, glossy finish. It is only on closer inspection that the viewer realises the work is entirely painted by hand.
Brinkworth's works challenge our perceptions of the image; in our contemporary world inundated with visual stimuli, she painstakingly labours over her compositions to make us look at these familiar objects in a new way. In a parallel challenge to contemporary conventions her technique mirrors the Renaissance mural technique of the 'cartoon', a drawing which would be pricked along the lines and dusted with charcoal to transfer the skeleton of the image to the wall. Brinkworth similarly maps out her photographs onto both sides of sheets of paper and rubs the reverse to move the image onto the canvas. Once the composition is mapped out, she begins working into the picture in oil using her distinctive technique.

Margaret Mellis was an important figure in the story of St Ives, though her artwork is often overlooked. Known for her collages and constructions in the 1930s and 1940s, the break-up of her marriage to Adrian Stokes and subsequent marriage to Francis Davison with the move to Suffolk in 1948, resulted in a dramatic change in her work: ‘I couldn’t even go on with what I was doing, so I went right back to the beginning of where I left off representational painting. I started over again’. The early 1950s saw a series of still-life compositions in which colour remained central to her working and her former abstract tendencies are still evident. Here, the use of the window obscures the foreground-background distinction and the deliberately arbitrary use of colour allows for Mellis to subtly distort the subject matter.
