Not Forgotten displays the work of two artists who remember in different ways. Veronica Van Eijk finds that nature and her garden bring back memories. Her large paintings start as ‘in situ’ gestural and spontaneous sketches recording the mood, the light, sounds and atmosphere, which her excellent visual recall allow her to interpret in the studio. Michèle Findlay replays significant events of her life through story telling images crafted partly through memory but reconstructed symbolically to convey the impact of life’s experience.
This exhibition reflects these different styles: Michèle’s works is contained within a closed space, reflecting the internal source of her memories, Veronica’s is displayed in the open, unbounded and in the light, recalling the moment of inspiration. Both Michèle and Veronica were born and grew up abroad, in the adjoining countries of Belgium and Holland which has engendered a sisterly kinship and view point which their work may or may not reveal. Only the onlooker can judge.
