SUCHICHIDAMBARAM<br />
Suchi Chidambaram's paintings express the energy, motion and<br />
vibrancy of places that she has a close association with: India where<br />
she grew up and London, where she now lives and works.<br />
She is drawn to views of cities, their people, the architecture and the<br />
absorbing stories behind them. These are not painted in situ, rather<br />
they are painted from her distinctive memory of these places, often<br />
driven by her emotions. She captures the mood of these cities and<br />
narrate them on to the canvas with impressionistic strokes of thick oil<br />
paint with the use of a palette knife, allowing fragments of visual data<br />
to combine with her subjective and emotional response. They reveal<br />
the rhythm and movement of the people in these places, shifting<br />
between abstract and figurative. As this is an ongoing series for her,<br />
she retells the story of the places she visits - some of course are<br />
revisited and retold more than others...
