Artist: Rufus Knightwebb
Knightwebb works intensively on two contrasting series of paintings, The ‘Action Paintings’ and ‘Light Paintings’, and has continued to expand on the essential duality between the assertive emotional push of abstract expressionism, and the cool technical aestheticism of the more illustrative ‘Light Paintings’. In these abstract works, the artist returns again and again to his original muse: electronic music.
"My fast action paintings involve choreography of rhythm and gesture, which allude to the sparse electronic music I listen to. Music provides a pathway to sub-consciousness. These paintings are a record of time, the fleeting moments in which they were made.”
Knightwebb can be commissioned to carry out site specific works please contact the gallery for further information.
