Bobbye Fermie
Présentation
Bobbye Fermie’s practice is an ongoing response to themes of isolation, personal boundaries and social anxiety.
Her practice explores the archetypal portrayal of interiors and homes within culture and storytelling, such as theatre sets and advertisement. Her work expresses this found juxtaposition between the public space and the private space. Her watercolour paintings and collages explore an imagined world for a shapeshifting character that act as a way of processing these internal emotions through the use of sets and scenes.
The viewer is invited into the world of a fictional character, following imagined intimate moments. Scenes are often slightly obscured or one layer removed from the viewer, giving them a feeling of separation or voyeurism.
Bobbye (b. 1990, Amsterdam, NL) finished the post graduate degree ‘The Drawing Year’ at the Royal Drawing School, London in 2015 after completing her bachelor in Fine Arts at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Antwerp, Belgium. She has participated in several artist residencies including Porthmeor Studios (2021, 2023) and Hafod Residency (2016) and has exhibited with Oliver Projects, Blue Shop Cottage RHODES Contemporary Art. She is currently working on her first solo show with Wilder Gallery, opening in spring 2024.
