Amy Albright

My paintings allow glimpses into a world where minute fragments and traces emerge out of deep, luminous, translucent layers of colour. I capture elements of chance when painting, with an intuitive response to previous painterly marks; layering, dripping, imprinting, accentuating, methods that seem as organic as the subject itself.

I am inspired by numerous sources; astronomical, satellite and meteorological imagery, as well as my own photographs and drawings. I am drawn to underwater light, reflections and particularly the layers in rivers and seas; from the bed to the dancing surface light reflections, more recently I have been exploring the places where land and water meet.

I’m interested in the connection between art and science in particular microscopic imagery and its visual connection to the aerial views of our complex world. I am trying to unsettle the viewers’ sense of scale. On the verge between figuration and abstraction, my aim is to communicate a sensitive, intimate view of nature’s constant flux, for the paintings to be ambiguous and  intriguing.

Amy Albright runs experimental painting in layers workshops from her Krowji studio, you can find more information here.
