'Shadows' - Kate Davies
Kate Davies is a Manchester based painter whose work is both evocative and compelling.
Her recent works deal with the experience of being in the countryside, the tangle and mud underfoot, and the sublime glimpses of changing light and distant spaces. The processes of painting, layering, washing, dribbling etc. echo the processes at work in nature, but with hints and glimpses of observed realities in her use of collaged fragments of photographs. These fragments reflect something of the complex way in which we form perceptions with half remembered details of sharp focus. Sometimes there are figures in the landscape, at other times merely traces of human presence, (tracks, fences, litter, etc.). These are paintings which look for beauty in the unexpected, the ordinary and the overlooked.
This exhibition brings together a large body of work from this prolific artist.
