I am an East London based artist who works on large scale canvas pieces combining print and painting techniques. Having graduated from the RCA with an MA in Printmaking about 100 years ago , printmaking will always be in my first love and is very much my comfort zone, however I very much enjoy the fluidity and instantaneousness hands on experience of painting. I am therefore very happy resting in the middle of both worlds using traditional printing techniques within a painting. Each work still retains the freshness and spontanaity of a unique painting while incorporating screen and block print within each piece.
I am part of Barbican Arts Group Trust and have a studio at their Blackhorse Lane site in Walthamstow. Together we have Open Studio events, hold art auctions and take part in the biennial E17 Art Trail. I love my studio.
Kally Laurence is an East London based artist who works on large scale canvas pieces combining print and painting techniques.
Having graduated from the RCA with an MA in Printmaking, traditional printmaking methods will always remain close to her heart, however she very much enjoys the fluidity and instantaneousness hands on experience of painting. She is therefore very happy resting between both worlds .
Each piece still retains the freshness and spontaneity of a unique painting while incorporating the repetitive nature of screen and block print within each piece.
The work is vibrant, busy and energetic. The hope is that they bring an energy and optimism to the space they occupy, although the work by no means deals solely with joyful aspects of life.
Having recently joined the Barbican Arts Group Trust, her studio is now at their Blackhorse Lane site in Walthamstow. Together they have Open Studio events, hold art auctions and take part in the biennial E17 Art Trail. She loves my studio.
