Biography
Tracy Watt is a nationally exhibited artist. Gaining a Master of Arts Degree in Painting from the University of Hull in 2002. She has shown work in a number of both group and solo shows. A highlight being awarded first prize in the prestigious International Chichester Open Exhibition in 2005. Now living and working in North Wales, UK where she continues to produce idiosyncratic works for exhibition and sale.
In her work Tracy retells narratives used by artists through the ages. Using self as subject matter in paintings she brings the female form into modernity. At a time when both women and men alike are addressing analytically their own bodies and self image. There is a psychological twist to the usual feminised imagery depicting the female form, as Tracy shows strong characters who at times look out from the picture to question the gaze of the viewer.
