Retrospective - Works of Brenda Hartill
It feels like a real privilege to be able to keep Brenda Hartill’s work with us a little longer as we move into the new year. Brenda has had an extensive career spanning several decades as an experimental printmaker and mixed-media artist, widely known for her richly textured, embossed works that abstract the essence of the landscape. Working across collagraph, etching, encaustic, painting, and collage, her practice is driven by a fascination with erosion, weather patterns, growth formations, and the universal organic forms found in nature. These themes are expressed through intricate layers of material and texture, often enhanced with silver and gold leaf, creating luminous surfaces that shift with the light. Originally trained in theatrical design at the Central School of Art and Design, Hartill’s early career in stage lighting and set construction informs her approach to light and structure. Her work has evolved from careful, figurative drawing to an expressive, abstract visual language, where layering and materiality are central to her process. She describes her approach as sculptural, building up embossed surfaces, cutting, collaging, and carving into materials before adding colour, resulting in works that are as much about physicality as they are about image. “We’ve found ourselves repeatedly drawn to the sheer materiality of Brenda’s work; there is something so atmospheric in how she uses her background in theatrical design to "stage" these geological abstractions. we never tire of seeing how the light catches those metallic-leafed surfaces and the intricate, embossed textures she creates. It’s been a joy to have these complex weather patterns and natural formations on our walls, and we are so glad we have this extended window to share them with you in a fresh setting.” Thursday - Saturday 10 am - 4 pm or by appointment until the end of January.
