« With my painting, relationship between materials used and image created is everything to me. One is responsible for the other, it is symbiotic. This is the essence of my work. »
Rachael Bennett is an experienced British painter who has exhibited her work nationally. She is primarily interested in the liminal spaces within landscape created by natural transitions; those uncertain, indeterminate spaces caught between one world and another. Her work is descriptive of form, light and place in an atmospheric way, and she hopes for each viewer to experience the psychological state of mind created at the moment between wakefulness and dreaming.
