KATHRYN LANG creates immaculate paintings that formally address
the nature of figurative and abstract painting. Originating from
photographs taken from the screen, the image is subjected to
lengthy processes of manipulation before being rendered in
paint. Lang ultimately creates a de-contextualised static image
that is defined by a complex construction of image on lines.
These structural, compositional lines might be horizontal or
vertical and either expand or condense the original image within
the picture plane. Contrast and tonal levels are also
accentuated and manipulated to increase the direct visual impact
of Lang's work.
