ABOUT THE ARTIST

CAPTURED BEAUTIFULLY

Constance Regardsoe is an artist specialising in capturing water and figures in water in oil paint. The fleeting moments captured in each of her paintings juxtaposes with the time consuming painting process she employs, and the moment is painstakingly recreated over weeks, like an insect being preserved in amber. The use of a figure in her painting serves to remind the viewer of our collective smallness; in her more abstract pieces, the form of the figure is radically altered, a visual reminder of our own ephemerality and the inevitability of being changed by our surroundings.
