Lesley Oldaker, painter and photographer, explores the transient nature, purpose
and interconnecting relationships of random moving figurative groupings and their
interaction with the space around them.
Expressing a personal response to co-occupying the space communicates a sense
of displacement and a question of belonging and relevance within that space.
The work originates from drawing, photographic and printing studies, which enables
the abstraction of the essence of form, space and colour for the paintings.
Initial washes of inks and acrylics create the sense of structure,
negative space and perspective. The main medium is oil paint, which communicates
more desirably the sense of continual movement and fluidity of the form
within the work.
A limited colour pallet, painterly marks on a large canvas enhances a
suggestion of mood and place, creating a more engaging visual experience and
allows the viewer to explore further, the form and space of the
painting.
