Anna Grear

Artist Anna Grear

Anna's work is inspired by a combination of her former time as a physical performance artist exploring improvisational mime and dance work and by her love of New Materialist philosophy. 

She loves the sense of 'play' between the paint, the canvas, the brushes and other tools, and the artist, as partners in the emergence of a painting. 

Anna loves to respond to the 'nudges' provided by the paints, the canvas and the tools themselves as material components of working. 

Her love of colour earned her the tag #ColourWitch in 2016 and it stuck!
