Paul Anderson Morrow
Paul Anderson Morrow's practice is characterised by processes and the creation of art in relation to materiality. Morrow is curious about the ways in which people encounter materials based on their personal experiences and associations with them, and how this knowledge informs our actions when working with these materials.
Morrow often works across a series of pieces that create a context for exploration and has started to consider the notion of time in relation to the process of making. He enjoys the physicality of working with materials and appreciates how paint accretes in layers marking the passage of time. He then disrupts these surfaces by excavating, moving between these two interventions as a composition is slowly fashioned.
Recently he has begun to examine archetypes and habits present in painting. This can be seen within his most recent series Sermo Corporis and the Rotundum series both of which explore the notion of self-referring, time and the archetype, and the tensions between, process, material and the significance of symbols and the agency of the circle.
