Holly Dormor

Nasturtium Light, 2023

OIL ON WOOD PANEL
40 × 35 cm
An attempt to simultaneously embrace and resist the crawl of daylight across a room.
A marker of time & space, light reveals an astounding variation of colour in an object providing warmth, weight and often otherworldly contrasts. A leaf suddenly illuminated or a shadow curiously awash with colour…. these are the moments I wait for.
