Aaron Kasmin: Closely Observed

Aaron Kasmin creates images of great formal elegance: spare, hard-won, small in scale but full of quiet power. He works with coloured pencil on paper. His favoured motifs are everyday objects. He makes us see them anew. 

In his artworks he tries to convey the pleasure and beauty of looking. He composes small images which play with scale, balance, space, colour and harmony. The mood and character of each work is determined by the imperfections of the human eye recreating and interpreting exactly what is in front of it.

Aaron Kasmin studied at the Chelsea School of Art in London. He has exhibited in New York, Paris and London. This is his first show at the Rebecca Hossack Art Gallery.
