May Everett
£0.00
May Everett is a printmaker based in Sussex, UK. Everett studied Fine Art Painting at the University of Brighton and discovered printmaking techniques in her final year, fuelling an interest to unify her practice as both a painter and a printmaker. She is interested in lyrical abstraction and the combination of painterly and printed mark making with more considered collaged elements.
Her preferred printmaking method is monotype as the process offers unique possibilities and the opportunity to capture luminous colour and direct brushwork. Everett tends to discover the image whilst working, although recurring themes often emerge. Landscapes, gardens, foliage, window frames and vessels, shift, dissolve and reappear through layers of semi-translucent soy based printing ink. Calligraphic marks distort colour and mass as she explores the space or perhaps frictions between the visible and the invisible, resulting in pictures with familiar elements but also a sense of ambiguity.
Everett’s work has featured in group exhibitions, art fairs and open studio events, including the Terrace Open in East London. It has been selected for the Jackson’s Art Prize longlist and is held in UK and international private collections.
