Fleur Yearsley To Hold the World in a Lava Lamp, 2024 Soft pastel, graphite, and ink on paper Signed on Verso 10 x 15cm (3¾ x 5¾ in.) About Fleur Yearsley is a visual artist based in Manchester, UK. Her work explores themes of memory, humour, gender, and unfolding narratives, often drawing on pop culture to create a relatable connection with the viewer. Offering a fresh, immersive perspective, Yearsley reclaims the tradition of 'the gaze', which has historically objectified women in the Western canon of art, shifting the power dynamic. She engages viewers, inviting them into her approachable paintings to reflect on how they perceive the subjects and their own role in the act of looking. Her process is characterised by immediacy and openness, balanced with playful refinement and a colourful sensibility. Through a diverse range of gestural actions, hard edges, and flat colours, she infuses her work with energy and a sense of vibration. Yearsley's paintings resonate like a generational anthem, addressing concepts of high and low brow culture, everyday life, urban environments and social norms.

It explores the refracting aspects of character, as character can be consciously or unconsciously portrayed to others through our interests, our style, and how we interact with the different people we encounter - in this case, the artist's character in this little portrait comes across through the body posture and gait of her shadow as well as the style, focus, brushstroke and colour of her own paintings. What we create is as much a window into our souls as our facial and body expressions. This artwork also continues to play with a love of light and colour.

Since the 1970's Jim held over 40 one-man exhibitions throughout Scotland and in London, his work being in great demand. Many of his paintings are in public and private collections in America, Australia, Canada, Germany, Hungary, Japan, South Africa and New Zealand, and throughout Britain, including that of HM Queen Elizabeth the late Queen Mother.
