GALERIA ATLÂNTICA, VILA SOL VILAMOURA

Jessica Dunn, Seegrun Lubke and Tiago Oliveira open their new show here on Tuesday June 5th at 7pm.

Jessica has exhibited extensively across Portugal, as well as in England, including the Eaton Gallery in London and at the Biennale Internazionale Dell’Arte Contemporanea in Florence. Her works are represented in various private collections in Portugal and abroad. Vibrant is an apt description of Jessica Dunn´s collection of oil paintings: The sun,the sea and music of Portugal are all strong influences in her work. Her images of children playing on beaches are achieved with a lively brush-stroke and vivid palette,creating a delightful sense of spontaneity.Equally captivating are her portraits of musicians and dancers and her animal paintings are portrayed with great affection and humour

Seegrun Lubke's work is concerned movement, like dance.
Later the desire for abstract graphic elements showed up in Seegrun’s work. In this sequence, the lines become larger with volume and the themes become more contemporary, done both in oil and acrylic. This process hides many challenges such as the language of forms, colours, rhythm and of the brush strokes. Other aspects to be considered are the material used, its texture and its surface.The communication between the interior and the exterior, the conscious and the unconscious, are for Seegrun essential parts of the creative process.
