Helga Groves
Sutton Gallery is pleased to present Suspended Animation an exhibition of new works by Helga Groves.
As a visual artist, Groves' interest in physical geography as visible science presents a parallel universe of significant form. 鈥楪eomorphic' as a descriptive term appeals to her as it relates to the structure and formation of landforms as the study of surfaces. The process of delineating and manifesting form is ultimately generative and conceptual in nature, contributing to her engagement in geomorphic processes as a form of animation.
Groves' polygon shaped paintings on wood are a tribute to the shaped canvases as hybrids of painting and sculpture that grew out of 1960s abstraction. Through turning the congruent shapes on their axis, cyclic rotation suggests movement. These shifts are also marked through the repetition of the hand-drawn mark in layers as an infinite reversioning of nature's primal template.
