Framed in a grey wood floater frame - ready to hang

Extract from a poem by John Press - Salthouse, Norfolk

'Perhaps if we came here with unburdened hearts
The marram grass and salt marsh would assume
The savour and the promise of ripening corn
And the sea would flash with iridescent spume.

But I believe that some original taint
Haunts and infects with foreboding the heavy skies,
Benumbing the flints and beasts and earth with grief
Which we do not invent but recognise.'

Exhibited at The John Davies Gallery - Moreton-in-Marsh
Gloucestershire 7 July - 4 August 2018

Biography Lara Cobden is a figurative painter living and working in Norfolk. Following a degree in Painting at the University of Brighton, Lara spent 11 years in Ireland before relocating to East Anglia. Her work has been exhibited in the UK and internationally. 'Focusing on memory and sense of place, the paintings are a subjective and individual response to the natural world around me, seeing the fantastical and magical in nature. I hope there is both a stillness and fluidity in my work; in the ordinary - a sense of reverence. Paintings evolved from remembered landscapes and casual snapshots, shimmer and shift in and out of focus, both misty and precise. This balance is also contained within the composition of a painting; presence and absence. The thread pulling this work together is about 'coming home', belonging; or conversely a sense of ' unbelonging'. '
