Géraldine Swatridge on ‘Résumé’

My work usually addresses the psychological levels of internal life, incorporating subjects such as insomnia, illness, mental illness, grieving, reflection on the human condition and our preoccupations and exploring the ways human beings deal with these experiences. In the past my work has focused on schizophrenia, investigating various aspects of the condition by deconstructing images of cold, still, deserted and atmospheric landscapes through progressive abstraction. This gradual deconstruction through abstraction is a recurrent thought process in my work.

My practice expresses my thoughts and research through the media of painting, mixed media and printing and is usually a mixture of preplanned preparations and intuitive actions.

In December 2019, a virus appeared in China and quickly spread to Europe. The first lockdown in the UK started in March 2020, and this pattern became the new norm imposed by Covid-19 on the entire world.
