Rebecca Barnard
Rebecca Barnard MA
Rebecca Barnard’s painting practice is informed by a sustained engagement with architectural space, structure, and rhythm. Her work explores off-kilter cityscapes and imagined terrains, drawing on a love of Mediterranean and classical forms to examine how built environments can hold emotional and psychological charge.
Barnard uses form, colour, and spatial tension not only as structural tools but as carriers of mood, memory, and meaning. Architectural elements are reduced, shifted, and re-weighted, blurring the line between place and feeling. This process-driven approach produces paintings that present both a compositional conundrum and an emotional encounter, underpinning a distinctive painterly language.
Barnard lives and works in the West Country. She has an MA in Fine Art with Distinction from Falmouth School of Art and has exhibited in selected solo and group exhibitions in the UK and abroad.
