RESPONSES IN COLOUR

MARTIN GOOLD | JEANNETTE HAYES | SUSAN LAUGHTON | LOUISE McCLARY | REBECCA McLYNN

10 JUNE 14 JULY

The highly regarded Contemporary Art Gallery in Morcombelake, Artwave West presents an

exhibition of five distinguished artists.

Martin Goold will feature new pastel paintings using strong colour contrasts inspired by recent visits

to Italian cities. A dynamic geometry holds the compositions together, revisiting his fascination with

the artistic movements of Constructivism and Vorticism and their associations with architecture,

hard edges and machine forms.

By contrast, also using pastel as her chosen medium, Swedish born Jeannette Hayes VPPS will display

landscapes that are constructed out of lines and blocks of evocative colour. A love of the

exquisiteness and drama of the natural world conveys itself in the drawn marks, gestures and

accents of colour.

The quiet, understated landscapes by Susan Laughton are inspired by half glimpses, memories and

references to man-made structures such as telegraph poles and farm buildings within their natural

milieu. Beautifully crafted surfaces are flooded with monochromatic colour before delicate linear

work is added.

The Cornish landscape that Louise McClary has lived in and felt for on a profoundly embracing level

has driven her work. Delicate intertwined ribbons of paint suggestive of natural organic elements

and dusty powdery tints sensitively brushed in to evoke various light effects are the feature of her

enthralling paintings.

Remote and expansive landscape is the inspiration behind Rebecca McLynn’s work. Through

investigating these locations her paintings distill the power and atmosphere of nature and reveal a

strongly felt human connection to domain. Paint flows and runs freely, expressing the sense of space

that she experiences, but surprising intricacy also acts on the viewers perception.

This exhibition will surprise, delight and enthrall visitors; colour is used with different atmospheric

effect by each artist to express their individual response to environment. For a chance to meet and

discuss the exhibition with the artists come along to the Private View on the 10th June from 6-8pm.

Please contact the gallery for further details.

Open Tuesday to Saturday 10-5pm.
