About Me
- Studio1
- I can escape through painting, exploring and pushing the boundaries between a disabled world and an able-bodied world. I have recently graduated from the Slade School of Fine Art, London with a Masters of Fine Art (MFA) in painting. Previously I did my BA at Falmouth College of Art, Cornwall Having studied at Art College for six years, it has given me the experience and the self- confidence to paint freely. I use humour as my inspiration to produce large-scale, brightly coloured figurative paintings. My current work is to do with people treating me differently because of my disability. I have a physical disability – Cerebral Palsy. This affects my speech and hand co-ordination. My awkward hand movements work to my advantage when I paint. This helps me to express all my frustration and it brings spontaneity to the paintings. Without being able to verbally communicate with strangers easily at first, my work acts like a visual voice. I want to break down barriers between disabled and able-bodied people. For me, I don’t want any barriers in my way. I am an expressive artist at you can see some of my work at: www.lucyapple.com
