Rachel Foister is an emerging artist whose work centres around an exploration of mediated imagery and the power of the human form to convey emotion.
She is fascinated by physical and mental human potential and the experimental use of colour to convey intense feeling.
Her background in chemistry is combined with in depth knowledge of pigments, colour theory and classical atelier based artistic training. She uses powerful pigments from a wide range of historical and contemporary sources applied using a unique layering process developed over years of experimentation enabling her to render physical form with power, intensity and depth.
Every work is an exploration of the unknown.
She loves to work in collaboration with other artists, in a creative dance that allows the benefits of free expressive exploration through parallel and combined working patterns.
