ABOUT THE ARTWORK

A dreamy portrait. Bright and colourful. The colour palette is sweet and bright (hence the name) but with darker elements. Short life cycles of insects and plants represent our own journey of moving through time. A cycle (circle). A lot of my work has nature themes and motifs, representing connection to the earth and the hard fact that one day we will all return to it.

Gemma Compton is a contemporary artist living and working from Bristol in the UK. She has a First-Class (Hons) degree in fashion design achieved at U.W.E in 2008. She has exhibited her modern memento mori works internationally, from the gallery wall to fashion apparel and large scale murals. Memento Mori Faced with a void, an untouched surface. I swiftly blemish with pigment. The mark is made. No longer pristine. Who wants to be perfect anyway? Finding flow, colours merge, I am adrift. Memories bleed out, broken bones, the formless takes its shape. Small wings preach gospel, the end is nigh. “Everything changes, everything moves, everything revolves, everything flies and goes away.” My kinship with Kahlo. Levels of pain, covered by layers of paint, a contemporary vanitas. Mother Nature calls us all back to the dirt, finite. Unearthing presence within the chaos, the brush exposes my scars. A sadness in this creative endeavour, That life is too short, And will not last forever.
