About
Annabel Avison is a fine art graduate originally from Wales, now living in the South of England and currently studying for an MA in Art Psychotherapy. Her work moves through different media and themes to form collections of art that bring together a cogent, articulate expression and clarity that showcase a certain language and form.
Her art is centred around emotion, thought, sensation and the people who experience them. Capturing the essence of what it is to feel, where emotion shows itself in people and how it is distilled have formed the basis of her works for the past few years. Often focusing on very specific and small-scale themes such as the effect of a phone call from a family member, the frustration of friends or the problems that pigeons present. Annabel’s work is intended to reflect what may be highly personal experience but which can resonate with everyone. Often self-deprecating and starkly honest, Annabel’s pieces can combine frivolity and pathos, lightness and darkness, simplicity and complexity, urging the observer to take what they see at face value and then to ponder the possibility of a more profound truth beneath.
Working with paint, crayon, charcoal, pencil, biro, ink, clay and digital media; pieces created onto canvas, wood, metal, linoleum, cardboard, fabric and scale ranging from large installations to tiny hand-held art, Annabel aims to retain fluidity of expression in order to respond to her ideas and those who commission her in as diverse a way as possible. Her most recent piece is 'Waiting Room' - a study of disparate groups of people thrown into a common situation, each with a different story, a different path but in this moment, all united in a single place, for the same purpose - together, but alone.
Annabel is pursuing a career in art and art therapy and welcomes new commissions and projects; from a painted sign to a portrait to a piece of fine art for your wall or office or to bring life to an old bicycle.
