#StroudExhibition – Anna Marrow – 8Sept-19Oct – Prema Arts Centre, #Uley “Anna studied fine art printmaking at Bristol then graphic communication at Central Saint Martins and now works out of her print studio in Bristol. Anna Marrow creates surprising, often humorous but sometimes alarming images by combining mundane objects and environments with exotic creatures and characters. She likes to pinpoint a specific moment in time, often depicting objects from her childhood – 70’s televisions, radios and cars feature heavily in her work. Anna has a particular fondness for Victorian and contemporary brutalist architecture; a combination of the two seems to echo most of the places she has lived in - Liverpool, London and Bristol. The artist’s detailed drawings are highly coloured, sometimes with surprising combinations of shades and are characterized by quirky juxtapositions of themes and imagery. Birds seem to be a regular feature throughout her work. For Anna her birds represent freedom, ambition and imagination. annamarrow
