Mixed media on paper, 49.5 x 39cm
Portugese-born artist Joana Galego’s images are informed by – in her words – ‘memories and feelings rather than actual events’. Firmly rooted in drawing, her paintings and works on paper are characterised by a vibrant palette and a visual language partly inspired by historical artists including Piero de la Francesca and Paul Gaugin.
Often, multiple trains of thought inform Joana’s imagery. She says that this work explores ‘longing and searching for affection, some comfort and company. Fallen leaves and a curtain of blue to let out (or in) the feeling - a blanket to throw over the lonely body. Blue as a friend arriving with a blast of wind.’
Purchased works are usually despatched within three working days.
