Notes


CS Moncrieff's paintings are rhythmical visualisations, frequently exploring the relationship between femaleness and the land. Creativity abounds in the stories she constructs, often within the compositions themselves. 

There are utopian and dystopian elements in Moncrieff’s practice, reflecting her generation’s conflicted feelings about the future. The tension is inferred in the light and dark, the fleeting flecks against the thick gestural sweeps, urban against wilderness. Colour is non naturalistic, brushstrokes are fast and fluid. A tilted angle plane is favoured, typically from just above. 

The work also conveys bursts of merriment, reflecting a joy for the land surrounding Moncrieff - the doves, mushrooms, fleshy foliage all exist in the woods she lives by. 

While there is an element of angst, there’s escapism, a celebration of wilderness, with folklore and mythology interwoven into the subtext. She exhibits nationally and internationally.

I’m interested in our cognitive dissonance with nature. We put it on a pedestal, we Disnify it. Yet we simultaneously destroy it.
