Grace Green

About the Artist

Grace Green, is a British artist based in Somerset. She graduated with a BA Fine Art from Falmouth School of Art in 2016.

Her paintings focus on the fruitfulness and fecundity of life in all its forms but principally the absorption in organic growth. Considering the idea of a glasshouse acting as an incubator to the plants, protecting them from harsher climates, creating safe places to enable plants to nourish and grow, much like the mother’s womb. The vulnerability of plants and the natural world is ever increasing and these paintings are trying to convey that sense of beauty yet remind us of the anxieties that accompany them.

Sometimes the abstracted plant forms represent in her mind the microscopic cell structures in nature. Occasionally less organic forms such as chicken-wire have been introduced as a reminder of constraints that are placed by man over nature. But throughout her work the primary desire is for focusing on growth, nurture and transformation. More recently a figure is present, introducing the relationship between human and nature.

"These pieces were painted after a visit to The Eden Project in Cornwall. It is a response to the beauty of the array of tropical plants on show. The plants are held in captivity, the gardeners tend to them and therefore they are dependant on humans to survive. A reminder of the fragility of these plants that would not survive beyond the walls of the Biomes." - the artist.

"The question 'How can humans co-exist with nature?' is something strong within these pieces. Colour is paramount both referentially and in its pure, abstract state." - the artist.
