About polly Bagnall

I work in a 'performative' way to make marks. The movement of my body is evident in the painting as I sometimes use mark making tools attached to my body. Limiting my control as a painter paradoxically allows for something less prescribed to arise on the canvas. The gestural marks can be unpredictable and create a dynamic energy to the work.
