Tanya Wood

Wood’s work concerns the fragility and preciousness of life, explored through the close study of surfaces disrupted by human actions. Using graphite and paper, she invests time in the careful and detailed rendering of these traces of existence, elevating the ordinary to the extraordinary.

Tanya Wood revels in the ordinary, the everyday, the overlooked. She dedicates hours of her time to understanding every millimetre of her chosen subject, thus elevating it to the level of a cherished and valuable thing.

Exhibited at Griffin Gallery in Perfectionism in July-August 2014.
