[edit]

Highly obsessive and organic in construction; Gemma Nelson’s paintings weave like cells, creating delicate chaotic tapestries in response to various themes such as female sexuality, fairytales and notions of webbing and nets. In other works patterning and totemic tattoos are very strong influences. Using Indian inks and mixed media on canvas, her paintings are high pitched in colour, creating illusionary spaces, surfaces and worlds that are both resonant and abstract.

We can see Gemma Nelson’s paintings as objects of condensed time, whilst also suggesting disruption, mutation and beauty. Each of the obsessively crafted cells in her work represent a slot of a few minutes in the production of the painting, although when viewed in their entirety the cells in the works merge and are reminiscent of the psychedelic patterns of the sixties. We can only make sense of time as being a linear journey, although in reality time bends, warps and shifts.
