Experimental and expressive abstract paintings, drawings and etchings conveying physical movement and psychological disquiet.
Restless States encompasses works which deal with structures and systems, processes of disruptions and the physical qualities of paint and other media. These 3 main elements are methods Sandra Beccarelli employs to investigate concepts of movement and change, both physical and psychological.
Sandra’s large paintings may display evidence of previous structures, long gone, altered, removed, disrupted; tiny syringed seepages of paint may emerge from behind the canvas questioning what is happening ’behind’. Her smaller scale pieces are meticulously and obsessively worked and re-worked, often as interesting from the ‘back’ as the ‘front’.
Sandra’s own restlessness is conveyed through physical and gestural mark making, creating systems and breaking them, and by the unending exploration of the potential of materials. She is searching at the edges for the divergent or unintentional to be receptive of the numerous possibilities that may arise, and where each choice could be the starting point of a whole new body of work.
Sandra Beccarelli ‘s works has been selected and hung at The Royal Academy Summer Exhibition, ING Discerning Eye and The Griffin Art Prize and has featured in numerous group exhibitions. Sandra was Artist in Residence at Orleans House Gallery in Twickenham, December 2015 – April 2016, with a solo show “Beyond the Surface of Seeing” in the Stables Gallery at the same time. www.Sandrabeccarelli.co.uk
