MY PAINTINGS

 

My paintings are abstract interpretations of sensory and emotional experiences. Whether it is the scent of a perfume, the sound of a familiar voice or a rainy landscape, they will always set out to evoke some sort of sense memory. They also incorporate elements of emotion and are composed to create a felt response rather than a logical one. A lot of my work draws directly on my synaesthesia which is a merging of the senses, meaning that within every taste, sound and smell, I experience textured, moving, colourful shapes. These moving shapes don’t intrude on my sight, but they do enhance my inner abstract vision and can either be visited deeply when I’m painting, or in a more transitory way within everyday life.

 

I believe we are all born with synaesthesia and that it is not really such a rare and ‘special’ condition but simply that most adults have just lost the capacity to acknowledge and access it. Having always retained my synaesthesia has given me a visual passion for the world; seeing and listening beyond the obvious, and finding connections between intuition and logic.

WORK WITH ME

5ftinf Philippa Stanton commissions

I often collaborate with brands on artistically led projects and rather than simply creating promotional content for a specific product, I prefer to create inspirational images and films which help to build a more engaging and integrated story around products, events and campaigns. I look on these collaborations as commissions; working within a brief, but also maintaining my own personal style and artistic integrity. If you would like to discuss any ideas you might have for a brand collaboration, however large or small, please feel free to contact me.
