Mary Ramsdens
Mary Ramsden's works are abstract compositions of bold gestural marks where the paint itself is as much a part of the work as the image it represents. The marks are created by wiping the surface of the canvas with a cloth to remove excess paint, creating a vibrant yet contemplative surface. Her seemingly calm and minimal works reveal themselves to be vibrant and energetic on closer inspection.
The artist
Mary Ramsden studied at the University of Manchester, where she graduated with a degree in Art History. She then went on to study at the Slade School of Fine Art in London. During her studies she began to explore different media and develop her personal artistic voice.
