About This Artwork

Richard Corbett graduated from Norwich School of Art in 1994 with a BA (Hons) in Fine Art (Printmaking). He continued to exhibit whilst teaching in Suffolk for ten years but in 2005 he made the move to try the life of a full time artist by setting up a studio in Monmouth. Richard’s work has been described as ethereal, generous, beautiful and evocative. He doesn’t work from the landscape directly but uses the materials with joy and intensity to try and reveal the emotions one feels when surrounded by Nature. He is searching for the “Inscape”, or as Gerard Manley Hopkins put it- the form that evokes the spiritual within us.

About This Artwork

My working practice consists of interpreting visually a felt experience of landscape, describing a multi-sensory response to the shifting patterns and interactions of light, land and water and translating what I encounter into the fascinating language of paint. For me, painting is as much about touch as vision, as much about feeling and memory as conscious thought and decision. Though I make notes and tiny watercolour sketches outdoors, I prefer not to work directly from the landscape but in the studio, under the influence of the memory of my original response.

About This Artwork

Anne Vibeke Mou traces time with the promise of revelation. Her work explores how materials may effect a momentary suspension in the dialectics of change, entropy and fix. Mou’s practice moves between drawing and sculpture, from slow, compulsive processes of making to accidental encounters and the found object. Currently, the making of her drawings involves the application of many tiny marks following a rigidly defined horizontal grid. The image evolves from this process as densities of the marks vary over lengthy periods of time. Intense repetition of tiny individual marks reveals the paradoxical collision of the apocalyptic with the sublime.
