MARY WEST
Mary West was born in London in 1980. A graduate of the Slade School of Fine Art, she exhibits both in the UK and internationally. Her work is collected widely and sits in collections in the UK, America, Australia, Europe and Asia.
Mary’s work merges abstract and figurative elements to explore landscape through light, space and texture. Inspired by memories and emotions tied to specific places, her oil paintings emerge through intuitive gestures and layers, capturing fleeting moments. Painted both in the studio and en plein air, internal worlds mix with external worlds. Chance accidents keep the process exciting, leading her down unexpected paths. Seemingly insignificant drips create moments of beauty. The work has an urgency and turbulence and yet at the same time a calmness. Mary relishes the ever changing elements of nature and landscape, the wild and the peaceful, the ebb and the flow and it is this that she seeks in her paintings. She finds comfort in the cycles of the natural world, its unstoppable power and infinite beauty.
