Anita Le Sech Explores Texture, Color in Large-Format Work at Agora Gallery

Chelsea's Agora Gallery will feature the original work of British artist, Anita Le Sech in Mlange of Milieu

2012-11-03

NEW YORK, NY, November 03, 2012 (Press-News.org) Anita Le Sech's large-format abstract work is a stunning display of line, texture, and artistic vision. To create her paintings, she uses everything from acrylics to oils to emulsion, and she incorporates cement, polyfila, adhesives, wood, stones and wax to add a compelling array of textures. Le Sech's powerful use of color contrasts nicely with her delicate lines, to create paintings that are full of motion and energy. One of her greatest influences is Jackson Pollock. "I love how organized and yet chaotic his work is, it really opened my mind," she says. Her work, which strikes a similar balance between order, chaos, simplicity and complexity, bears the mark of that influence.

Le Sech grew up on the island of Jersey, and she currently splits her time between London and Jersey. She spent several years traveling all over the world, and her art is strongly influenced by the colors and textures she experienced. Le Sech does many pieces on commission, and her work has been exhibited all over the world.
