Annette Pugh
Original Works on Paper
Birmingham-based artist Annette Pugh explores notions of restlessness and uncertainty within her work. Fascinated by archive photography, Annette often references subjects and locations that are at once both familiar and yet anonymous. Concepts relating to leisure, longing, and absence imbue her practice, and solitude and solace are ever-present in recent paintings. These investigate a meditative and powerful sense of place, and notions of fate.
Annette writes, ‘The idea that as an artist, you can immerse the viewer in a location through colour and brush marks, and express an intense intimacy with the landscape, is a powerful achievement.’
Over the course of her career Annette Pugh has exhibited extensively, published articles, and received various grants and funding for the development of her own practice and teaching initiatives. Her work has been purchased for public spaces and private collections and she has been awarded an MA in Fine Art and an MA in Art and Design Histories.
Most recently, Annette has undertaken a major commissioned show, ‘Happenstance’ at The New Art Gallery Walsall, exploring our emotional connection to landscape.
