Press Release

Michael Lett is pleased to present a selection of recent works by Imogen Taylor. Taken from the artist’s solo exhibition at Whangārei Art Museum, the paintings are nocturnes, or night scenes. Each work has been built-up through many, vivid, scumbled glazes over top of florescent planes of colour. An illuminated effect is created, like shafts of moonlight and artificial light, skin is thereby highlighted and figures glow like phosphorescence. Entangling representation and abstraction, myriad layers and planes resonate with overlapping sensations of isolation and sometimes despair, alternating with pleasure and sensuality.
