Loren works in the half-light most of us pass through without stopping. Here, forms gather at the threshold – a turned face, outstretched hands – surfacing from somewhere wordless. The absence of colour makes the presence of feeling louder.

The artist discusses how her figures reveal themselves to her while she works the canvas. Rather than alluding to specific characters the forms appear ambiguous and free of a fixed identity. ‘Figures coagulate as fragments of sculpture or restless spirits, momentarily visible through a fracture in the veil. An ethereal hand reaches up from moss-green depths, while the features of a face become apparent in the absent space Loren carves from her paint. Under the power of Loren’s spell, paint is alchemical, oscillating between liquid and solid, transparent, and opaque, invoking figure and form.
