Briony Anderson
|
Artists
Statement:
Briony Anderson is an artist based within the UK, but mainly between
London and Scotland. Working in Scotland, the surrounding landscape
is the impetus behind her paintings, which are informed by direct
observation and experience in the landscape itself. The works do not
demonstrate an attempt to represent the actual view, but convey a
sense of immediacy through a personal response to the landscape.
|
The
horizon/seascape has been studied through an extensive series of
works – observing and documenting the consistencies and changes
within that specific viewpoint. A concern with the blurred divisions
between land, sea and sky, and the vastness and changeability of
the landscape correspondingly informs the subtle variations of colour
and tone used in the paintings.
Continuing to paint outwith Scotland, her practice is evolving to
represent memories of the Scottish landscape and as a result, her
work is developing more within itself – working in series
to allow the actual paintings to draw on and inform each another.
In this sense, each work becomes a development of the last - manipulating
and constructing movement and gesture through the marks made by
the paint.
Briony also works collaboratively and this work is detailed at www.andersonmacgee.co.uk
