Intuitive Oils / Re-Emergence
Anna Dyson (b. 1965) is a British painter who lives and works in London and was educated in Richmond Upon Thames College. Dyson reaches for unexpected color as she works quickly and “intuitively” on multiple canvases at once, covering them in swirling, flowing, vibrating forms. Dyson’s neurodiversity is the touchstone of her practice, and her work carries with it the translation of her experience navigating a world wired for others. Dyson’s work foregrounds her experience living with ADHD and Autism while at the same time surrendering to the vibrant, electric intuitive condition her subconscious rests in. “I leave everything at the door and paint,” says Dyson.
My Oxygen
Lay in paint running free
Deafening
Calling up a pulse
Of lost energy
Waiting to be seen
Each breath
On canvas
Spread in haste
Where anything goes
Just in case time runs out
And I lose the race
To make any sense of it
At all
