ABOUT THE ARTIST

Rebecca Barnard lives in Somerset and has an MA Fine Art (Dist.) from Falmouth School of Art.  She is a member of the South West Academy of Fine and Applied Arts (SWAc) and has exhibited widely with both solo and mixed shows in prestige galleries in London, Cambridge, Aldeburgh and Broadway. Her paintings are in private collections worldwide and she is regularly selected to show at a variety of open exhibitions including the Royal West of England Academy, the Society of Women’s Artists (SWA) and the Bath Society of Artists.

 

Her practice is centred around intuitive, oil based abstract painting, ​ She focuses on the fragile threshold where order and disorder converge.  ​Paintings move between subtle evocations of place and pure abstraction, where practical and emotional decisions around palette, form and mark take centre stage.

 

"Rather than adhering to a predetermined structure, my work emerges organically.  There is an interplay between intention and spontaneity which makes outcome both mysterious and expressive.​  The works teeter between balance and chaos, harmony and disharmony."

More recently, Barnard has also added organic sculpture to her practice and this work ranges from multi-media installations to single-media projects.​
