THE ARTISTS
please click on each artist below to learn more
Having individually established themselves in successful and diverse careers, which often demanded a more hectic pace of life ~ each artist has subsequently turned to painting as a way to find a window of calm within the chaos and rigours of modern-day living
Each artist has their own process of making time and space for soulful experiences, translating into beautiful, atmospheric works of art ~ whether through a connection with nature or a visceral memory ~ their work evolves to evoke a sense of stillness, quiet and balance ~ embodying the meaning of yutori – letting go, trusting intuition, and noticing details in the natural world around them
Through the careful choice of materials and colour palettes, and allowing a work to evolve organically, the artists’ work appeals on a sub-conscious level of our human need to regularly experience the beauty of the natural world ~ often eliciting a deep, emotional response within viewers, as it resonates with their own lived experiences
Bringing their work together in this exhibition ~ we hope that it acts as a gentle reminder of the importance to reconnect with spaciousness, and the art of slowing down in our daily lives – yutori
