Artist Statement
Through her art practice Yvonne deconstructs, rebuilds or reinvents the everyday through photographs, memory and imagination. Many of her paintings are landscape based with a number of them harking back to her Scottish roots. Yvonne blends marks of realism, impressionism and abstraction to the subjects that populate her works: landscapes, birds, animals, humans. Always interested in things ‘other’ she is continually exploring a sense of place and themes of belonging, often embracing the singular or outsider in an unexpected world of illusory spaces or imagined realms.
