Fiona Moatt

United Kingdom  • 2015

Presentation

Living on the Isle of Wight, Fiona Moatt is naturally drawn upon its diverse coastline as a major source for her work. She is particularly fascinated by the changing light and how that affects the colour and mood of the scene. Coastal walks with spectacular views of glistening water or just sitting in the camper van with a cup of tea watching the ever changing sky, creating images that are constantly with her.

Fiona Moatt’s work combines acrylic paint and collage to produce layered textural images. The technique that she has developed involves ‘pre-painting’ paper with acrylic which is then torn and applied to the surface of the canvas or board.

Acrylic is such a wonderfully, versatile medium. Initially she uses plenty of water, allowing the paint to move freely before building up thicker layers of either muted or vibrant colour and whilst the acrylic is still wet, folding the paper allows the painted surfaces to merge, creating pattern and texture.

In addition, Fiona Moatt has worked in schools helping with art projects and competitions and has also run after school classes and art workshops for adults.
