About the artist and their work:
Seatton has a highly distinct and expressive way of depicting the world - objects, space and especially figures are rendered in a strange and singular way. These works on paper have materialised over the last few months, where Seatton has been experimenting with new approaches to materials, methods and imagery.
Every piece reaches its conclusion in different ways: pictures from magazines provide a starting point - often collages with subtly surreal tweaks, such as broken space or figures of differing scale; transfer mono-print methods clash layers of drawing into one another, resulting in unexpected and strange confluences of imagery; the Risograph printer often plays it’s part, creating copies of drawings in different colour combinations, allowing for second or third attempts at the same image; charcoal, oil bars, chalk pastels, ink and acrylic paint are all used alongside each other to create texture, rendering the scene and emphasising backgrounds, positive/negative space and line.
