Enjoy an upbeat and abstract celebration of colour in the uplifting work of modern day Pop Artist Lily Senner. Senner’s art is a glamorous exploration of ‘memory, half-remembered and half-imagined’, and invites the viewer to experience glorious unreality.
Senner’s vibrant palette conjures electrifying Pop Art to celebrate the entreating subject: moments only half lost. Take for example, ‘Midnight Swim’, the fundamental form of which takes the shape of a swimming pool under the moonlight. The pool has been remembered as a kaleidoscopic dreamscape; captured using Senner’s diverse array of marks and chameleon colours. Her vibrant, near neon palette and the blissful spirit of the work call to mind Brazilian artist Beatriz Milhazes. Lily cites David Hockney as one of her greatest influences, and this homage runs through her work: particularly in her choice of clean contoured suburban landscapes, a number of which feature pools and call to mind Hockney’s famed Swimming Pools series.
