Keppel Nowson

Keppel Nowson - painter ceramicist sculptor I use acrylic paints, printing techniques, ceramics, wood, stone and any material to hand to create pieces that reflect shapes and forms in nature and the human body. These can be both abstracted and literal. I also create prints from original paintings and images using photoshop. collages and any means at my disposal. My work is largely inspired by the Futurists and the notion of movement. I cite Modigliani as an inspiration, along with a variety of African artists whose work have influenced my style. My paintings often represent deconstructed forms, with figures and shapes assuming multiple positions to encapsulate a single being. A key part of this process revolves around revisiting previous pieces - to develop a concept further or to create something new altogether. Knowing when a project is done, however, is also key - you have to have a moment when you know when to stop or you’ll completely ruin what you are trying to achieve!
