ABOUT THE ARTWORK

Master of Hidden Beauty is my first painting based on an actual home that I have had the privilege to visit. It contains members of my close family and the interior displays artwork that reflects incidents that affected me in 2019. It's easy for you to think there is an end insight. But then at a glance it appears to be pure, but then you see what's hidden in the grass. The philosophy underlying Dawn’s body of work is to celebrate the intimate relationship between an item and its owner by illuminating the context in which it is presented. Her process, whether constructing an elaborately furnished roomscape or the study of an austere clay pot draped with crocosmia. In her painting she invites you to learn more about the home owner as she gets to know them.

I am a self-taught artist who seeks to weave threads of memory, emotion, and nostalgia into the fabric of my work. My still life paintings are not merely representations, but rather, they are poignant narratives that echo with the reverberations of life lived and experienced. My work bridges two worlds – the vibrancy of my Caribbean roots and the eclectic energy of my London life. This duality becomes a prism through which the familiar is seen in a new light, and the mundane is transformed into the extraordinary. I seek to capture the often-overlooked beauty that resides within the everyday – the untold stories of objects, spaces, and moments that silently shape our existence. Through the use of bold colors and assertive brush strokes, I strive to convey the life force pulsating within these silent observers. Each painting is an attempt to arrest a fleeting moment, to harness its energy, and transpose it onto canvas, creating a conduit through which the viewer may reconnect with their own past and present.My art, at its core, is an homage to the beauty and richness of life. Each brushstroke, each burst of color, is a celebration, an exuberant declaration of life's vibrancy. I believe that art has the power to evoke profound emotions, to heal, to connect, and to inspire. It is my hope that those who encounter my work find in it a spark of joy, a ripple of comfort, and a moment of contemplation, thereby fostering a deeper understanding and appreciation of their own lived experiences. My work is part of The Soho House Collections at Shoreditch House and Soho Farmhouse Receptions, at 180 The Strand and private collections worldwide.
