+ OVERVIEW
"The normal nature and reality of a body is continuously brought into question in the online space. I am interested in the 'imperfections' that come through the labor of the process, where the paint gathers and hairs of the brush sit on the canvas." – Georgia Dymock
Georgia Dymock born in 1998 in the UK. She graduated from UCL witha BSc in Anthropology and graduate Diploma course in Fine Art at University of the Arts London. Currently pursuing her MFA in Painting at the Slade School of Fine Art, University College London (UCL) (2021-2023). Georgia Dymock addresses questions of identity, the 'self,' the female form as such. Dymock combines digital and analogue modes in image creation. Dymock's figures are composed of curling, distorted forms which contort within the confines of the painterly surface boundaries, where their exaggerated curves are inspired by the generous rounded shapes from Picasso's Neoclassical Period. Dymock has participated in solo and group exhibitions in New York, London, among others. Her work is collected of Museu Inima de Paula, Belo Horizonte, Brazil. The artwork "Pulling Plait, Sucking Straw (part one)" is one of the main works exhibited by the artist at the JD Malat Gallery in London in 2022. The joyfully plump figures contrast with the geometric background, creating a strong visual impact. The paradox between subject and surface is central to the artist's exploration of the constant push-pull relationship between our virtual and physical worlds.
