Looking for the Light
Our next exhibition with Pascale Rentsch RSW opens to the public on Friday 10th March.
Pascale writes about her latest exhibition:
“I am always looking for the light. Not necessarily in its obvious form but more as an abstract, hidden meaning; the leaves of a bush lit by the streetlights, shining golden against the dark night sky. Shells and stones which gleam on the dark slate seashore or the berries which glow like little embers across the grey landscape and the river flowers swaying gently with their delicate colour hues against the river’s edge.
“It’s those tiny lights that touch me and I try to hold and capture them in my paintings in a spontaneous way. My work is an expression of my feelings of what I see and feel at that moment in time and being connected with my surrounding wholeheartedly. They are there, the small lights, no matter how dark and dull a day might appear.
“When we look and feel, we become connected and see those small lights right in front of us. Those lights are magic; I paint them and take them with me.”
