About this artwork
Sometimes when I begin drawing figures in motion, the body stretches beyond its own limits. I paint from imagination and my imagination can stretch but also dissolve at the outer limits. What was in my mind here was a model in a fashion shoot from a magazine, styled and posed in luxury clothes in an industrial backdrop. She had retained agency and power despite the contrived styling. I wanted to capture that strength and agency. What emerged here… was a suspended moment where action felt both possible but also impossible and constrained. A figure wrests itself from the confines of form, asserting presence through the act of becoming. The brushwork is deliberately loose so that colour and movement are blurred together.
Gillian Holding, with a Fine Art degree from Leeds Metropolitan University and a background as a solicitor, works primarily in oil paint, embracing the physicality of her medium on both large canvases and intimate panels. Her instinctive, semi-abstract style blends drawing and painting, often depicting fragmented bodies in transition, using brushes and unconventional tools to leave areas unresolved and evoke emotional ambiguity. Through these painterly gestures, she explores themes of liminality and contradiction, ultimately conveying sensations of uncertainty, vulnerability, and the transformative potential found in life’s fissures and fractures.
