Mhairi Ballantyne

Visual Artist

The search is constant to reflect the ambiguous themes found and explored on the way.
For me, the work can take an array of different forms …whether painting, objects, or film…and can either be presented individually, pulling towards a sense of intimacy, or orchestrated as installations to create drift within an immersive space. At once it is up close and yet far away.
Resistance in the work opens up an intrinsic questioning, which may hint at another dimension.
This fourth dimension is hidden but can be navigated and revealed through this dialogue as another way of seeing.
