Telephone Boxes, Vinyl, 2023
For our phone-boxes-turned-gallery on Arena Square, Fiona Grady has used rhythmic patterns of interchanging shapes and colours to transform the environment, with interlocking triangles sitting in equilibrium to one another, creating a tension with the gridlines of the iconic red phone booths.
Her glowing shapes are composed from a harmonious palette of warm tones: lemon yellow, tropical orange, rose red and hot pink. 'Sun-Kissed' highlights our associations that allow this wave of shapes and colour to capture a slice of summer sunshine. For the artist, these colours create a feeling of warmth, happiness and anticipation for adventures ahead.
Artist Bio
Fiona Grady’s practice explores our relationship with natural light
by imagining how it moves through space, stretching and rotating
across the day. She creates rhythmic patterns of interchanging shapes
and colours to ambient effect that transform their environments. Her
artworks reference traditional mediums such as stained glass in a
contemporary setting.
