“Painting is flirting with the subconscious, using mark making and colour until an image starts to emerge.”
Steve Brockett’s work explores how places seep into the subconscious, merging with memory and experience to resurface as reimagined fragments. His semi-abstract paintings often feature symbolic figures, animals, birds, and evocative landscapes—spaces where flight feels as natural as dreaming. These places become emotional receptacles of time, where physical landscape transcends backdrop to play an active, dynamic role. Steve’s process is intuitive rather than pre-planned: each painting evolves through deconstruction, reorganisation, and the interplay of abstract marks. At times, a single form or gesture sparks expansion; at others, the work sits in stillness until a resonance emerges. This moment of alignment—where memory, imagination, and emotion converge—gives his art its distinctive sense of movement and poetic reflection.
