ABOUT THE ARTWORK

These works draw upon the solitary nature of a city. This recent body of work asks the viewer to question themselves as well as the subject. Who is reflecting on whom and what is being looked at. Galleries are, for some, a sacred place of calm and inner contemplation, not just an educational venue for viewing art. Here we can be still and meditate on the mastery of our forbearers, whilst quietly giving ourselves much needed air-time. The identity of these figures is immaterial, they are strangers to the artist, the viewer, and to each other.

British artist Christabel Blackburn trained in figurative drawing, painting and scultping at The London Atelier of Representational Art. She has been drawing and painting portraits for or over 10 years and her broader work increasingly focuses on the relationship between people and their environment. With photographic stillness, her paintings explore city life, from a street scene or building bathed in sunlight, to a lone figure in a gallery. The work deals with the contemporary ‘screen culture;’ the ease with which an image is instantaneously enhanced and shared, visually manipulating the world around us. Light plays a vital role in these paintings and it is this timeless quality which Christabel projects in her most recent architectural work.
