Aesthetica Magazine top-picks London Art Fair 2021

Comber’s distinctive works play with abstract composition and perspective. The artist layers different ratios of oil paint to pigment. Once applied, Comber introduces a third dimension to her works by carving patterns that evoke scenes of beaches, roads and other landscapes.

“The texture in this work is outstanding. It feels like you could just touch it. I think it conjures up a lot of emotion that spans the range of human sentiment from chaos and loss to something that is more pensive and reflective such as random patterns in nature.”

The Walks Land Residency Exhibition

The Walks Land Residency Exhibition is part of the larger Galloper Sands Collection Exhibition and runs throughout the summer including artists working on projects associated with the landscape of The Alde Valley in Suffolk.
My work is being shown in the historic threshing barn and paves the way for a larger exhibition next year 2022.

Proposal Field Residency 2020/2021

I propose to make four designated visits to the site over the period of the next year.
The purpose of these visits will be to collect and document information which will then be transported to my studio in London, where memory will also play a role in the creation of work.

These visits will be September 22nd 2020 The Autumn Equinox, December 21st 2020 The Winter Solstice, March 20th 2021 The Spring Equinox and June 21st 2021 The Summer Solstice.

Four defined points in time, of the natural calendar which I hope will inspire four significant paintings (as well as subsidiary works) which document the passing of time across a specific location. Monuments of time and experience in that place.
