Original Paintings

I am Isobel Brigham (b. 2001, York), an acrylic based painter and visual artist focused on brightly hued paintings that combine luminescent colour with archival images. Through my work, I explore scenes of the everyday, relationships, nature, childhood and belonging, using found references, bold underpainting and contemporary negative space. My artistic practice is influenced by personal experiences and relationships from childhood into adulthood, creating dreamlike scenes of girlhood, and aim to question the tranquillity found wearing the ‘rose tinted glasses’ when reminiscing and feeling nostalgic, altering an unrecognisable memory.
