Felicity Keefe
Winter collection 2017/18
A contour, a curve - the lie of the land
Felicity's contemporary landscape paintings are inspired by her experience of the British landscape as it changes and reacts to seasons, weather and time. She is inspired by the blending of traditional landscape, literature and personal mythology. Her work is distinctive for its sense of atmosphere, often brooding, but also starkly beautiful.
Felicity currently lives and works in Bath and has exhibited in galleries throughout the UK, abroad in Stockholm, Amsterdam, Paris and Singapore and at all of London's major Art Fairs.
"Out of random marks something recognisable emerges while something one thought to be recognisable recedes back into randomness... Keefe's approach of working partly with intent and partly with unplanned freedom, mirrors the landscape as she sees it. This is a landscape both structured and chaotic. It is the confrontation and meeting between these opposing states in nature and in her painting which produces dynamic energy and exciting friction."
