VISUAL ARTIST: MELISSA SADIE WRIGHT
(1975) Born in Kent, UK / Based in the Pyrenees, Spain (but travel & work Worldwide).

QUALIFICATIONS:
KENT INSTITUTE OF ART & DESIGN, Canterbury, Kent, UK (Sep 1993 - Jul 1997): BA (Hons) FINE ART – Specialized in Painting.

PERSONAL STATEMENT:

"Unique 'RUSTIC' PAINTINGS utilizing natural available resources reclaimed from the environment (contorted root-systems/branches of trees etc) using a fusion of materials: Acrylic on canvas/ hessian/ recycled fibrous paper-pulp, & often, incorporating intricate embroidery. A journey, an intervention …Process of ceaseless renewal: light, movement, change, ebb & flow, growth & decay. (Relating them to the element of time – Seasonal changes/Temporality). Exploration of place: patterns, textures and colour. Space in constant transformation. Ecological systems/cyclical awareness…

Each piece is deeply embedded with traces of where it was executed, both via the moulding of the canvas over the rocks etc, &, by the referential organic particles that physically enrich the pigmentation itself (in the form of sand particles from the riverbed, pollen etc). My work is connected at every point to the phenomena of the natural world: Constant dialogues highlighting organic shapes & rhythms, colours of flowers, trees and rocks, light and atmosphere.The forms of my pieces – spirals, circles etc are powerful expressions of the patterns and rhythms of growth.

TEXTURED MURALS: that incorporate 'rustic' paintings into the space, site-specifically designed to encompass & reflect Natural settings and Architectural elements (Colours of materials - stone, wood etc). My approach to colour selection involves careful consideration of natural light sources, space dimensions, permanent interior elements and, of course, my clients preferences... I emphasize colour palettes inspired by the direct location, (using Mixed-media: Ecological paints, natural pigments, sawdust, stone chippings etc), so its an integral part of the entire project environment. This organic approach results in a continuity of concept creating a seamless flow of colour / space / energy..."


ARTISTA VISUAL: MELISSA SADIE WRIGHT
(1975) Nacida en Kent, Inglaterra / Vivo en los Pirineos, España (Viajo y trabajo por todo el mundo).

BTEC Diploma Nacional en Arte y Diseño.


RELACION DE TRABAJOS:

PINTURAS 'RUSTICAS' utilizando recursos naturales disponibles en el medio ambiente.
Utilizando una fusión de materiales: Acrilico sobre lienzo/ arpillera/ técnica-mixta de retazos/ fibras recicladas de pulpa de papel, y a menudo, incorporando intrincados bordados.

"Celebración de la belleza en la naturaleza, un viaje, un intervención...
Proceso continuo de renovación: luz, movimiento, cambio, flujo y reflujo, crecimiento y decadencia. (Relacionandolo al elemento de tiempo · cambios Estacionales/ Temporalidad). Los ciclos/sistemas ecológicos.Una conciencia / Exploración del medio ambiente: patrones, texturas y color. Espacio en la transformación continua.

Cada pieza está profundamente incrustada con rastros de donde ha sido realizada, ambas a través de la moldura de los lienzos sobre las rocas, etc, y por la referencia de particulas organicas que fisicamente enriquecen su propia pigmentación.
Mi trabajo está unido a cada punto del fenomeno del mundo natural: dialogos realzando formas y ritmos organicos, colores de flores, arboles y rocas, luz y atmosfera. Las formas de mis obras, espirales, circulos, etc, son expresiones fuertes de las patrones, dibujos y ritmos de crecimiento.

MURALES CON TEXTURA que incorporan pinturas rusticas, diseñado especificamente para incorporar y reflejar el entorno natural y elementos arquitectonicos (Colores de materiales, piedra, madera etc). Mi enfoque para seleccionar los colores depende de las fuentes de luz natural y de las dimensiones espaciales,elementos interiores permanentes, y por supuesto, las preferencias de mis clientes... La paleta de colores esta inspirada en el lugar (usando pinturas ecològicas, pigmentos naturales, serrín, piedras pequeñas etc), entonces es una parte integral de todo el projecto ambiental. Este enfoque orgánico resulta en una continuidad de concepto creando un flujo de transición de color / espacio / energia..."
