Lucy Smallbone is a graduate from the Slade School of Fine Art Master's program who specialises in modern landscape painting. Her work looks at the merging of fictional and real space and questions the part that memory and the mind can play in altering a view of a place.
Picture plains tilt upwards, and vivid colours grow across the surfaces, images are distorted by a rigorous sketchbook-based drawing practice, taking them from realistic figuration into semi-abstraction. Smallbone is a recipient of such prizes as the Haworth Trust grant(2011), and the David Balladie travel prize(2009) and travelled to Chernobyl thanks to the Duveen Travel Prize(2016).
