The materials come forth to give the viewer an encounter with its rhythm, textures and viscosities. The texture moves light across the surface, giving the work dimension. Bleeding colours, distorted shapes and organic forms reveal almost recognisable landscapes and objects giving a sense of place and the viewers own perception of the landscape.
Tara Johns's Perspective
Artist's commentary
My work is experiential in nature. It is meant as an encounter. I encourage active participation in the process of looking and reflecting on the work. Highly textured and thickly layered in earth and clay, the work is a tactile and grounding experience. Sparks of colour illuminate the landscape and objects reveal themselves through shapes, at once recognisable yet vieled. Seeds are planted throughout that allude to context but these are merely a foundation for your own imaginings.
