GRACE WEAVER – FLOWERS
2024-09-02Painted in 2024 in Rangsdorf, Germany, Weaver’s latest body of sixteen large-scale canvases takes as its focal point one of the most enduring motifs of art history: the flower. Rendered in acrylic on canvas, a medium shift for the artist, the ‘Flower Paintings’ stand as both a counterpoint and continuation of Weaver’s oil paintings and watercolours of the human subject. Indeed, while impressive in size, the paintings are imbued with a profound intimacy. Upright, drooping, or entwined in a tangle of stems, the brightly coloured flowers appear highly charged, as if resonating with a full spectrum of emotion.
