Lara Davies
Born in 1985 in Maesteg and currently residing in Cardiff, Davies graduated from the Ruskin School of Art at the University of Oxford. She has participated in numerous exhibitions in the UK and abroad, and will soon make her debut in Taiwan at Contemporary by U gallery. Davies excels in capturing fragments of everyday scenes. Through her interpretation, even corners of windows can become particularly nostalgic. To create such gentle atmosphere and soft palette, Davies uses various media such as oil pigments and watercolor. The resulting cinematic quality transforms a commonplace to a poetic and nostalgic view, as if they were filtered through a film lens.
《Marmalade》
This wall once hosted a painting, a piece belonging to a dear elderly friend of Aitken. Aitken resided in the house of this elderly friend during the pandemic. They shared moments together and crafted citrus jam during their leisure. In the faded wallpaper, a void now remains. It is the trace left behind by the painting, which departed along with the elderly friend when they moved to a nursing home. The bittersweet taste of the citrus jam seems to have departed as well, akin to the void on the wall.
Davis skillfully employs delicate oil paints to capture this moment, rendering the wallpaper with a translucent quality, almost ethereal. The artwork intricately portrays the weathered patterns of the aged wall, while the void in the middle is filled with hues reminiscent of the citrus jam, echoing the shared memories of Aitken and his elderly friend.
