Joanna Georgiades is a London based artist working in portraiture and landscape, she uses gestural and kinetic marks to build a conversation between the brush and the drip creating form from action. Canvases from her studio are reused; she leaves evidence of the previous paintings to build relationships between the planes, with the areas of built up paint being used to define and intimate presence.These elusive forms are worked into ghostly disembodied apparitions that linger between the marks of the paint. These presences are emotively painted with nostalgic allusions and represent influences on her work from music, writing and popular culture.
Part of the vibrant community of Hackney Wick, Joanna regularly shows work as part of the Hackney WickED festival and the local gallery scene.
The next exhibition of work can be seen at Stour Space in a collective exhibition of resident artists and makers from 5 December 2013.
