Viewing Ena Swansea: green light

To celebrate the end of lockdown, Ben Brown Fine Arts has turned over its London space to Ena Swansea, an American artist best known for fusing digital, filmic and traditional painting techniques to explore urban landscapes.

Teetering on the edge of abstraction, these large-scale canvases show familiar but often overlooked scenes of New York. You’ll come face to face with Central Park in winter, deserted tree-lined roads and snowy streets at night.

By balancing light and darkness as well as brilliant and muted colours, Swansea lures us into her complex painterly visions of quietness. They are stopping and intriguing and utterly compelling — leave frazzled, whirling minds at the door.
