Frances Van Dammen Studio

Frances Van Dammen Studio Stop by Frances Van Dammen Gallery Studio to see an artist at work and to view an exhibition of her latest paintings.

Flowers and nature still lifes have been the subject of fascination for painters for centuries. Vast arrays of every species of flower, in gardens, in vases have saturated modern art. Frances Van Dammen departs from this convention, smashes the vase and sets free the wildest veins of nature in On Closer Examination, an exhibition of new works by the talented, widely collected New Zealand Artist. V

an Dammen presents a visual language that is neither entirely real or completely imagined. While trying to remain faithful to that which she observes, she is seduced by the possible; while her research is anchored in almost obsessive observational studies, the hand creating the work is diverted down to a mysterious 'what if' path. The result is a sphere of intensely detailed plant life emerging from the deep blackness of the canvas beyond. Colours as beautiful as those plucked from nature itself, sealed in resin in a surreal imagined reality.
