Description
This essay discusses the work of Brendan Stuart Burns, a Welsh artist who uses a variety of media to create abstract paintings. The essay discusses the different ways in which Burns captures the flux state of fragmented, half-seen images.
A fascinating insight into an extraordinary artist, this analysis explores one of Wales' contemporary painters. This rich discussion reflects on the different media Burns uses—such as paint, layered Perspex, and encaustic wax—and examines the remarkable abstract paintings of a small beach town’s rock pools. Illuminating the constant change of a shoreline, Burns captures the flux state of fragmented, half-seen images that teeter on the edge of recognition, and this discussion offers seemingly limitless approaches to those drawings.
