VIDEO: Penelope Stutterheime | Merging at Everard Read London

Penelope Stutterheime | Merging 5 - 27 May

Everard Read London presents an exhibition of new paintings by South African artist Penelope Stutterheime.  Based in Cape Town, this is the artist’s first solo exhibition in London.

Depicting “‘inner landscapes” has always been Stutterheime’s preoccupation. Drawing inspiration from dreams and the unconscious, her layered and textured paintings make use of intensely vibrant colour to create mesmerising abstract works. 

Making use of the impasto application of oil paint, Stutterheime presents tactile images that are symbolic and layered. With a fluid subject matter that has evolved through landscape, portraiture and still life, to an abstract and esoteric form, these paintings serve as metaphors for the transformative processes that unfold in the body and psyche.
