The Shape of Thought brings together three wonderful abstract artists whose practices are very distinct in method and visual language, yet connect in a shared aim; the translation of inner thoughts, ideas and feelings onto the canvas.
Rather than capturing emotions, memories and instincts in representational form, the artists work from their own interior landscape, making the creation of their works an active process of translating their thinking onto the canvas in the form of marks, colour and gesture.
Their thinking is made visible and emotions take shape.
The works in this show invite the viewer to engage not only with what is depicted but also with how meaning emerges and how abstract art can reflect the messy, beautiful ways we think and feel.
We’d love you to come along and experience these beautiful artworks with us, to linger a little, have a browse and add your own responses and thoughts into the mix!
