THE BEAUTY IN ABSURDITY

Pamela Wilson has built a reputation for works of art that transcend the commonplace to enter the realm of the otherworldly, the sublime unknown. She develops haunting images which create a remarkably compelling narrative. The characters in her paintings are often called ‘odd or mad’, or similar terms denoting something out of alignment with ordinary reality. She believes that letting ourselves explore the inherent ‘distortions’ in reality is part of what gives us heart, and balance. Addressing ‘beauty’ in a painting feels too passive, and what she is seeking is a psychological moment, a different kind of beauty, the beauty in absurdity.
