Maria Anderson

Maria Anderson

Maria Anderson is an abstract artist. She often works with found objects that feature reflective and transparent qualities. An essence of nature is incorporated within energetic forms and brushstrokes – the work challenges personal identity within the surrounding environment, and exposes how we engage with these surroundings by juxtaposing the reflective image against opaque expressive forms. 

Anderson uses a limited colour palette to isolate focus upon figurative mark-making and she works on a variation of scales to maximise impact. The artist’s current work is a response to the isolation caused by the effects of Covid-19, where the only other person was her reflection in the mirror, and the only sense of the outdoors was a view through a sheet of glass.
