ABOUT
Neave works through a multi-layered compositional process. She often begins with monoprinting, painting onto a slick substrate before pressing unstretched fabric on top, embracing the unpredictability of the imprint. The works therefore have their basis in the remnants of mark-making, in the uncertain transferral of gestures across media and materials. Neave then adds further marks to the print, using a combination of pigments, inks, dyes, and mixed media to achieve a range of textures and viscosities. By working on unstretched thin cotton, calico, or found fabric, the painted surface becomes a material in its own right, offering a physical connection through its softness and malleability in the hands. Neave often cuts up these pieces and stitches them together in new combinations, creating unexpected juxtapositions and alignments before finally stretching them. This process of cutting and collaging, of separating and re-joining, requires resilience and imagination. The artist works the delicate canvases with respect but without undue reverence, formulating sensitive compositions that continue to be uncertain until they are fully realised.
