Artist Statement for Richard Corbett

Richard Corbett, artist
Art at Nature's Edge
Richard’s work has been described as ethereal, generous, beautiful and evocative. He doesn’t work from the landscape directly but uses the materials with joy and intensity to try and reveal the emotions one feels when surrounded by Nature. He is searching for the “Inscape”, or as Gerard Manley Hopkins put it- the form that evokes the spiritual within us.
“People often see different things to me in my work, but most say that it evokes seas, skies and rivers. That is not surprising, as my whole life has been based around water- first Portsmouth, then the muddy rivers of Suffolk, and now the Wye Valley. I always holiday by the sea, and most days I sit and stare at the sky above Monmouth. I have my camera with me always and use the photographs to inform my work- so the marks and colours in my art start very definitely with Nature.
This is the starting point, but I never truly know where my work is heading and so the results often surprise me, taking me to a new place. Hopefully, it also takes the viewer to a new place, encouraging them to see the unseen or triggering memories of places been.”
