Louise Hardy
Overview
Louise Hardy's instinct for image-building is fed by an obsession with aerial photography, the detritus of war, brutalist architecture and the abandoned “Ghost City” construction sites of China
Materiality is at the root of Hardy’s practice, using her chosen mediums with spontaneity and jeopardy, alongside a fierce desire for control, resulting in a dynamic tension, ambiguity and physicality. Her instinct for image-building is fed by an obsession with aerial photography, the detritus of war, brutalist architecture and the abandoned “Ghost City” construction sites of China. This, alongside her love of mark-making, owe a debt of gratitude to the work of Julie Mehretu, Joan Mitchell and Carol Rhodes, whose complex structures, intuitive gestural painting and imaginary landscapes respectively, continue to inform her practice.
