DIONE VERULAM 2020
Dione Verulam’s collages provide the focus for her second solo show at Cricket Fine Art; the breadth of subject matter is diverse and the artist’s ineluctable interest in people is tangible. Dione breathes life into her figures through an original approach to form, paring her subjects down to their essential shapes – akin to the method of a sculptor. When not making collages (using discarded monoprints, linocuts and book-binding endpapers from her late mother’s practice), Dione works with a variety of printing techniques, and occasionally paints in oils or acrylics. From her romantic Woodland series inspired by the familiar Hertfordshire countryside where she lives, to her imagined scenes in the Auction series, there’s much to entertain the viewer. With more than a passing nod to some past masters including: Nicolas de Staël, Ivon Hitchens, Howard Hodgkin and Keith Vaughan, the Auction series gives her the freedom to subtly interweave her 20th century heroes’ pictures within her own. And in the Indian series, following her travels to Madya Pradesh and Neeleshwar, Dione captures the colour and warmth of the country. There are also the Nudes – the making of which Dione freely admits are challenging and fascinating in equal measure. Dione’s work is in collections in the UK, America, Australia, Italy, Spain and Switzerland. In 2019, Dione was shortlisted for the Bridgeman Studio Award.
