About this event

A graduate of Falmouth University’s Fine Art degree, Aimee produces paintings that evoke place through representation and gestural mark-marking, to transcend the act of replication.

Blurring the boundary between land and sea, Aimee Shardlow’s practice aims to capture the liminality of the Cornish, coastal landscape.

At the centre of this practice is a fascination with time elapsing. The landscape, as an ever-changing vessel, captures this through its impermeability: it is never the same twice. Aimee uses photography and acrylic painting as a method to explore these concerns. The process of painting allows Aimee to elongate an instantaneous moment, using dynamic mark-making to manipulate time within the image.

Aimee’s obsession with mark-making results in abstract layers of paint that, on close observation, appear as a hurried assemblage of shape and colour, that come together to produce a pictorial landscape painting. Aimee Shardlow has work for sale in St Mawes, Cornwall and The Poly, Falmouth. She has completed artist residencies at both CAST, Cornwall (2023) and Porthmeor Studios (2024). Experiencing a week at the Cyprus College of Art (2024), Aimee recognises the influence that changing location has over her artistic practice.
