ABOUT THE ARTWORK

Unmounted painting, it will ship rolled and require stretching. Another discovery from a dusty corner in my store room. When I painted it I thought it was so awful I had to hide it from myself, let alone other people. But there's something so special and refreshing about awful paintings that they become amazing. You couldn't, and wouldn't set out to paint a painting like that, so they rarely exist. The only way they can be made is if you really feel something and have this crazy creativity to experiment and make things. I had completely forgotten about this painting, but then when I found it I could remember putting down super thick gesso and scraping through it with a comb, why would you do that?!

Niki Hare

United Kingdom

b 1971 UK Self taught artist working with many mediums but liking paint the best. Painting is just a language that I am more comfortable with, it has an honesty, it is what it is. My work is very unprocessed, direct, I don't see as I paint , just look at it sometime later, then start again or leave it alone until another time. I work with layers, building them up and scraping back, finding stuff I had forgotten about, the painting starts to get interesting, to develop its own past. The word paintings write themselves with no restraint, if I'm not sure I keep writing over, but ultimately the words, however buried, have been said.
