JEREMY BEAR
MA
It is the vibrant and extraordinary in the lives of people that inspire Jeremy's work. A flick of an eye, a pose or gesture will become the basis for the wider story revealed in a painting. On his return from travels in India and Mongolia he has painted many subjects from his visual memory of powerfully recalled experiences. These experiences inspire short films which he exhibits alongside the paintings creating a more complete visual and aural environment for the viewer. Sometimes these are developed further into installations.

Similarly Jeremy's appreciation of the creativity of others inspires him to draw and paint crafts people at work. This has included a trug maker, metalsmith and woodturner, whom he knows well, and, encountered further afield, a Spanish clog maker and Japanese calligrapher.
