About the artist
Jane Bustin, born 1964, lives and works in London, her practice spans three decades of works in painting and ceramic as well as installation, text, film and performance. The paintings are made as sequential, monochrome abstract works, executed in a variety of mediums and surfaces. They explore the metaphysical potential for painting to 'make visual' philosophical concepts found primarily in modernist literature, feminism, theology as well as music and dance. The work is usually project based and can incorporate paintings, ceramic objects, text and live performance. The works influences come from 14th century frescos, 17th century painting, Belle epoque iconography, modernist literature, Nineteenth century poetry, women artists, 70’s feminist movement, Japanese ceramics, fabrics, books, hardware stores , neon signs, cosmetics, sweet wrappers. There will be a catalogue available for Bustin’s recent project, Pirelli, let me count the ways with an essay by Catherine McCormack, author of Women in the Picture: Women, Art and the Power of Looking (2021).
