The Drifter

(CLICK TO OPEN SERIES) Embodiment 2015

 

Figures are introduced in some works, which is a noticeable change in the artists process. The artists states " I am looking for a painting to take its natural direction, and adding something to the image which is a product of what the painting is already hinting at, in this way it feels like I am truly being creative by making something new and unknown"

Kerr chooses to use pours and drips as a method to apply paint. Brush marks are rare, instead we see thinned oil paint moved around in different directions by the canvas being tilted.

We begin to see narratives being created with figures interacting in their personal landscape. Somewhere which sits between a reality and a dream state.
