Help Ukraine: Without Reserve
18 MARCH 2022 - 28 MARCH 2022Notes
Mila Morton is an artist based in London whose paintings have been exhibited in the UK, Germany, the Netherlands, Hong Kong, Russia and the USA.
Her works are about patterns in the world around us, finding abstractions in the complex and complexity in the apparently simple, and about repetition/universality and singularity/now.
She grew up on the edge of the Eurasian steppe, where her first views of the world were of the dome of the sky, the curving yet level horizon and the flatness of the desert. At art school in Moscow and living in Asia, she has studied history of art from icons to Contemporary Art, the Asian landscape tradition, and her work is another manifestation of their truth: that representation is always multi-layered, incomplete but in its own way having meaning.
Morton's abstract pieces convey beauty, delicacy, and the power of nature. She most often creates using inks, acrylic and oils on paper or canvas.
