“Gareth Edwards’ paintings evoke elemental emotional weathers and beautiful spatial atmosphere. Gareth explains that “In recent years my work has slowly evolved from abstraction toward a more specifically landscape based approach (including seascape) in a traditional format of oil on canvas. My paintings remain open and free with abstracted elements but are now more spatial and elemental. Each painting will evoke emotional weathers and poetic atmospheres as much as topological features.”

Tangible Dynamics

Jola Wilk
March 23-29, 2015
Private View: Friday 27 March 7-9pm

current events

Jola’s works start from her passion for digital photography which she transfers and edits on her computer, a simple application that most people can do nowadays. She keeps on working on the image until it loses all formal elements that might identify the subject of the initial photograph. This is transformed into a large composition of colourful pixels on the screen which she keeps on editing patiently like a big colourful carpet where the weave is in digital format. After this whole procedure the selected composition is transferred on canvas, the most popular surface used by artists, it is transformed into a tangible object of art that can be handled by everyone unlike the digital surface from where it all started. These works amalgamates Jola’s research as a student, carpet designer and her passion for digital photography that ends with an interesting form that we identify as Fine Art.
