ABOUT THE ARTWORK

Stark and bleak the mountains around me in the west are covered in a carpet of spruce and Scots pine; a dense black velvet coverage that envelops your senses especially when the dusk is bewitching and you can smell the depth of shadows. I want the viewer to become lost in it mystery. As an artist I believe each painting that hangs in your home should bring you joy, that you should see something new in your painting every day. I love that this is a small piece, but asks those same questions; 'what do I see here?' Could be purchased with its sister painting for a matching set, hanging as a diptych. This painting needs no frame and hangs directly on any wall.

"What Sweeney has vividly evoked is its maker's desire to create a mark in public, to make something imperfect and thus unique. In this and many of these works, Sweeney's aesthetic is a raw one of the scrap yard, and at moments - the gutter" Jean Tormey, Curator, Tate Modern, London. Tracy Sweeney is an artist from Ireland. Her dynamic paintings have won major awards including the prestigious Pollock Krasner Award in New York. Sweeney's numerous international exhibitions have been met with much acclaim, particularly her exhibition "Station/Wall" in Grafiska Sallskapet Galleri, Stockholm; her work in the Paris Biennale 109 and a major group exhibition; "˜Grafiktriennalen', opened by King Carl Gustaf of Sweden in Stockholm, Sweden. Tracy Sweeney's paintings are held in major collections, galleries & museums throughout Ireland, Europe & the US. She is represented by Grafiska Sallskapet, & Galleri Ingela S, Stockholm, Sweden.
