Dymock works with the deconstruction of the body into simplified forms, often making her subjects gender-neutral; existing in their stripped-back nature, these forms feel ambiguous and could belong to any time or context.
Georgia Dymock's practice borrows inspiration from a variety of art historical movements, most notably Surrealism, Pop-Art, Fragmented Cubism, and Neo Classicism. Dymock draws on imagination and humour to reimagine herself and others through paint, capturing the liminal space that is intertwined with the subconscious rather than simply depicting external appearances. The artist works with the deconstruction of the body into simplified forms, often making her subjects gender-neutral; existing in their stripped-back nature, these forms feel ambiguous and could belong to any time or context. Rendered in bold colours, the voluminous anthropomorphic figures intermingle with geometric shapes and curvaceous landscapes, occupied by further fairytale creatures and objects.
Drawing inspiration from a multitude of sources, Dymock then brings her imagery together into the digital realm using digital programming illustrators. The artist morphs these elements into new compositions and subsequently translates them onto the pictorial surface. Once the canvas is evolving, Dymock further develops the rendering, going back and forth between digital and analogue media, each informing the another in an ever-evolving exchange of inspiration. The result of this process is a mixed media collage which is eventually concluded onto the canvas, achieving a smooth-to-the-touch finish where brushstrokes cease to exist.
Georgia Dymock lives in London and is represented by Gillian Jason Gallery.
