About the Item
"Going for a Swim" Oil on Canvas Figurative Painting 2023
Artwork on supported wooden frame. Ready to hang.
"A quiet moment for introspection and disconnection. The elongated limbs and disjointed composition reflect the inner turmoil and fragmented self."
Tam Ess makes oil paintings that explore the subconscious, blending figurative surrealism with balanced compositions that captivate the viewers. Her paintings are characterised by vibrant colours harmoniously juxtaposed with earthy tones and subtle shades. This deliberate palette choice adds depth to her works inviting the viewers to delve deeper into the piece and discover paradoxes about life.
Her visual language was heavily influenced by Max Ernst and Hieronymus Bosch. She works primarily with oils on large scale canvas and projects. Her current works explore the contemporary sphere whilst staying true to her vision of challenging viewers to find the beauty and little surprises hidden in everyday ironies.
