Ophelia II Painting

Rum Freeman is an artist based in London. Arriving in the UK in the winter of 2013, she initially studied the Meisner Technique at The Actors’ Temple before finding her freedom working with acrylics, and more recently oil paint. Applying a highly emotional process of creation, Rum approaches the canvas in the same way as if she were working on a role, resulting in a dynamic and incredibly engaging experience for the viewer. You can see an example of her process here: https://www.instagram.com/p/BxL_R4-hHCr/ This year Rum began a thriving partnership with leading UK mental health charity SANE, after they reviewed her work as "arresting and thought-provoking, reflecting on a very serious subject". Rum Freeman held their first solo exhibition in a heart of Sloane Square at The Royal Court Theatre. The artist creates expressive , unsettling and dark pieces. Early works haunt audiences with their magnetic fear and discomfort.
