About
In her latest solo exhibition, artist Christabel Blackburn explores our modern relationship with technology. With photographic stillness, Blackburn’s paintings capture moments of everyday life so often experienced through a smartphone, from deserted street scenes to a lone figure in an art gallery. Christabel Blackburn: Recent Paintings deals with the contemporary culture of ‘everybody is a photographer’ and how easy it has become to instantaneously enhance images, visually manipulating the world around us. Light plays a vital role in these paintings, adding to the mystery and stillness and it’s this timeless quality Blackburn projects in her architectural work, bringing the concrete to life with a human-like quality. - Christabel Blackburn, 2016
