Irene Chapman is a post-conceptual artist that reflects on how no human is in context

without the natural world.

She is attracted specifically to desert scenery and its reflection of the absurd.

The terrain that tends to be a part of her pieces, whether portrayed through

film, photography, language, prints or paintings, are the Mediterranean

landscapes of her childhood in the province of Almería in Spain. The sea,

coastlines and nearby desert are incredibly significant for her art.

In every medium she uses, her focus lies on the warm and familiar colours

of the Mediterranean; with the earthy tones and bright blues giving an overall

cohesiveness to her work. Every piece is made intuitively, mixing and matching

images into a surreal, almost dream-like recreation.
