Jayne Sandys-Renton

Jayne Sandys-Renton is a painter focusing on nature and women. Her dense, interior landscapes invite the viewer to experience colour and gesture in these expressive, bold works that dip into fairy tale, myth, and transformation. "My ‘landscape interiors’ are often without a horizon, dense with vegetation, moving towards abstraction. While the work may be a direct response to nature itself, it invites a feeling of otherworldliness, creating ideas of transformation, hinting at a presence; maybe a figure will emerge as if borne of the landscape. Women are always implicitly present in my work, even if not literally apparent."
