A line in the sand: an artistic response in support of humanitarian efforts in Gaza (21/28)

Notes


About the artwork


Away from her tools, lockdown 2020 gave Brewster the impetus to begin painting. Deciding to continue her exploration of the societal pressures on the female mind and body through her brush. A collection of 100 original artworks, Woman in Parts, was formed.


Creating with inks and acrylic on paper, these expressly abstracted paintings conjure the complexity of the female form and psyche. Calligraphic curves are redolent of the structure of a back or the sweep of a breast; in other instances, the imagery eludes instantaneous recognition.


About the artist

Simone Brewster is an artist, designer, educator & cultural change-maker.

Strongly grounded in craft, Simone Brewster uses her creative outputs as her voice, celebrating and sharing windows into varied Black female narratives and histories. Born and based in London, the threads that flow throughout her work display a balance of function with beauty, a repurposing  of the “ ethnic” and the “western” and a continuous playing with scale, materiality and architectural form. Simone’s work is in the permanent collections of the Victoria & Albert Museum, The Museum of London and The Smithsonian Museum Washington. She is a regular public speaker on the subjects of contemporary design and writes on the subjects of craft, design and jewellery.
