The Discerner Magazine April 2017 - Issue 13 | Page 13

The Discerner Beth Partridge Beth Partridge is an artist whose expansive landscapes and cellular worlds are created in vibrant pools of colour micro worlds within worlds mixed with echoes of structural, archetypal forms. Working mainly in inks, fluid acrylic and glaze mediums, spontaneity and presence are deeply integral to her creative process. Both her past as a dancer , and her present life in the heart of West Sussex, UK, where she is “eternally bathed in green iridescent tonal landscapes,” are the biggest influences on her work. “The crisp smooth paper is for me a stillness bathed in white – a silent pause, like that between inhalation and exhalation. Then I pour the water and the dance begins. Inks merge. I gently nudge and persuade. I can never say what will appear” “Magma Chambers” - £895 Ink, Acrylic on Fabriano HP 640 gsm paper 72 x 28cm “Liminal II” - £1400 Ink, Acrylic on Fabriano HP 640 gsm paper 71 x 69cm in a circular mount Available to view at the Discerner’s Residence in Mayfair “Magma VII” - £895 Ink, Acrylic on Fabriano HP 640 gsm paper 77 x 28cm “Orbis” - £1400 Ink, Acrylic on Fabriano HP 640 gsm paper 62.50 x 61.50cm T: 07870 272 943 E: [email protected] W: bethpartridgeart.com For all enquiries, please contact Beth or Celine at [email protected] or 0207 491 9925 www.thediscer ne r . c om 13
