The viewer is included in the rules of the game that is going on here. Our perception is being played with.
There is no square footage, land is not a quantifiable commodity. Bewick draws upon the landscape and its features in her paintings describing an underlying emotional character. The forms glisten, brood and feel bruised, appearing barely arranged into a composition, while suddenly describing a gully cutting through the marshland or a ridgeway set against a stark sky.
Lorraine's work is inspired by the Norfolk coastline and the constant changes both natural and those brought about by human intervention.Using aerial viewpoints of the the coastline has given her the opportunity to play with pattern and shapes made by tidal flow and erosion. Lorraine strives to capture that notion of constant change.
Lorraine’s work has been exhibited in London, Edinburgh and Eastern Anglian region. A number of her pieces are held in private collections.
