Kempston's work explores a personal vocabulary of abstract imagery
and sound. His practice focuses on the plastic qualities and physicalities
of creation, illustrating a fascination with composition and the use
of form and linear elements as instruments of investigation. Multiple pieces, using different materials are worked on simultaneously in order that each medium and artwork will inspire the other. He maintains an open, questioning spirit and examines the relationship between conscious design and chance. The resulting territory of these experiments becomes the very subject matter for further inquiry and results in a self-contained world of visual and sonic statements. lead by curiosity, Gary sometimes incorporates re-used elements and found objects into works, these unrefined materials become a fertile source of inspiration. Through experimentation, the borderline between control and spontaneity is tested and enriched by the changing possibilities of these working processes. His artwork is created intuitively, layering and superimposing line, sounds, texture and form. Using distribution, repetition and contrast to question that which constitutes a homogeneous whole and creating autonomous works that answer only to themselves. His aim, through constant re-evaluation is to create pure abstraction and work towards a new kind of pictorial and audio logic. Gary is also a respected illustrator, regularly contributing to The Guardian and freelancing for a wide range of clients in design, print and new media. CONTINUE TO BIOGRAPHY > |
