Biografia
Jill Tegan Doherty is a graduate from Chelsea College of Art and Design and currently a member of the ACAVA studio collective in Hackney,London.
In her work Jill actively engages with the surrealist tradition, her work serves as an investigation into the subconscious, in which she transposes the fleeting imagery that exists at the periphery of human imagination. Her work explores these musings making her imagery visible to the collective human consciousness. There is an underlying haunting quality to the work, a certain hardship of social interaction and an air of confusion and entrapment. Each individual painting is riddled with subtle clues, forming suggestions to induce the mind into a certain ideation. Dipping into this strange realm in which representation and fantasy meld,, this artist emerges with unsettling images of a fragile and rare beauty.
