Throughout Vanessa’s artwork she allows the female figure to blossom, to transform, to shine within the darkness or floating in a sea of flowers. She shows how beauty and strength can be present in the most delicate forms.In the series ‘Nocturnal Gestures’, Vanessa uses painterly and gestural devices to abstract the image and using monotone red colour, giving it a cocooned and emotional response. It feels we are there with the subject and up close and personal. Nothing else matters in the world, times stands still and one is transfixed by the beauty and the delicate symbols these hands appear to be painting in the red mist of blossoms. In the red and green artworks, Vanessa manipulates these complementary colours to illuminate the darkness. The green represents the physical part and the red is the metaphysical and Vanessa tries to digitally paint what is fleeting and ephemeral, be it a glow, a vibe or thoughts and wings, in order to try describe what is not really there and what can just be imagined or felt.Vanessa’s images are transformative and evanescent; describing the innermost emotions that feel like the flicker of ember in the darkness of night, they dance in beautiful tones of red and then are gone. They speak of life, the cycle of life and the eclipsing of time and the appearance and then disappearance of delicate objects….either way, always that moment before metamorphosing or blossoming.She expresses hopes and dreams, time standing still and thoughts spiralling round and round, of visions and reflections dancing in circles and then dissolving into nothingness, into the darkness where they came from. They are magical, beautiful and only half of this world. Blossoms in the night.
