STORY

레이첼 하워드(1969)는 자살과 정신 질환 등 인간의 연약함과 감정의 복잡함을 주제로 추상과 구상을 오가며 작업하는 영국 작가이다. 확실성과 불확실성의 상반된 측면은 주제와 작업과정에서 만들어내는 긴장감을 통해 표현된다. 보통 4~5개 작품을 동시에 작업하면서 물감을 칠하고 우연적 효과를 통해 자신만의 독특한 물성을 탐구하고 있다. 그녀의 가장 최근작에서는 전통적인 매체의 규칙을 따르지 않으며 유화 물감의 독특한 특성을 탐구하고 있다. 물감을 묻히고 제거하며 팔림프세스트(palimpsest) 과정에서 기름과 관련된 환상을 탐구하고 있다.
