Artist Profile

James Rawson, a Norfolk-based artist, graduated with a BA Honours in Fine Art from Loughborough University in 2011 and currently resides and works in Norfolk, England.

James began his artistic journey with paper collage and painting before transitioning into abstract works that utilise non-traditional materials such as wood. His material-driven approach is minimalist, inspired by the Minimalism movement and the avant-garde Gutai group. Rawson’s work focuses on the act of creation rather than a stylised composition, making his art both conceptual and physical. By stripping away the artist's gesture, his pieces emphasise the presence of the artwork itself, encouraging viewers to engage with its tactile qualities.

In his latest body of work, Rawson revisits his love for painting, blending abstract floral designs with geometric diagrams. These kaleidoscopic forms serve as a bridge between abstraction and nature, offering a fresh perspective on the natural world. His exploration of still life, characterised by curvilinear shapes and vibrant colours, is rooted in the traditions of the Northern Renaissance. Rawson’s evolving style continues to challenge and intrigue, presenting a dynamic fusion of organic and structured forms.
