Piers Phillips is a British artist based in North East Lincolnshire, working primarily in oil painting and printmaking. His work is characterised by a limited palette and a deliberate application of material to create strong forms and balanced compositions. Central to his practice is a close exploration of form, colour, and texture, translating his visual response to the natural environment into tangible artworks.
Repetitive mark-making features prominently in his pieces. While each mark is applied individually and informed by a consistent gesture creating a sense of cohesion across the surface, closer inspection reveals subtle variations.
The pieces are designed to connect the observer with their emotional response to viewing a work of art. This aims to counteract the disposable nature of modern society and the rapid consumption of instant stimuli, instead highlighting the importance of taking time to immerse ourselves in what is in front of us.
