Trevor Bell
Artists Statement & Bio
Statement
I think about things that excite me: convoluted strata, the eroded and broken edges of cliffs, the constant interaction of the elements, the movement of boats on water…
I think about the object and its inner image; the activity of each and the play between the two and I try to be straightforward to remove unnecessary information.
For all the theorizing, formal and conceptual notions, the truth of the matter is that I see myself as a conduit. The titles come afterwards so that I don't impose myself on the work as it goes along. Then I leave it alone.
I have been saying the same thing all my working life. Just in different ways.
