Michelle Conway The Back Road To My Father's, 2021 Gouache on Paper Signed verso 15 x 10cm (5¾ x 3¾ in.) Michelle Conway (b. 1968) begins her work from darkness. Wiping, washing and bringing back the light to uncover a painting. She is acutely aware of light, the passing of time, and what is left behind. The starting point for each body of work are thousands of photos taken over the past 20 years. Painting reminds her of what no longer exists. It is her way of experiencing the world as it is. She exhibits internationally and has works held in private collections in London, NY and Hong Kong.
