This painting is inspired by the powerful and emotive expression of trees. I have woven a personal narrative into the title of this this Silver Birch wood painting, suggesting that the trees themselves are calling the viewer into this space. In so doing I have aimed to capture a sense of the mysterious relationships, both seen and unseen, within the natural world. In this image there is an invitation to be involved, as a viewer, and the wander into the mystery.

Riga Forbes

United Kingdom
"As a contemporary artist, I paint landscapes which express my somatic, emotional experience of being within the natural world and responding to its power, fragility and temporality." Riga Forbes is an award-winning landscape painter. Her work is inspired by the dynamic shapes, elements and moods of weather and light within nature. She is passionate about protecting the environment and painting the British landscape. Her painting practice combines working from sketches and photos captured directly in the landscape as well as from memory, imagination and found images. In 2020 she was shortlisted for the Holly Bush Emerging Woman Artist Award 2020. In 2021 she was shortlisted for the Royal Cambrian Art Prize. In 2021 she was also a prize-winner in the Painting Awards at the Florence Biennale 2021. In 2022 she exhibited her landscapes of Britain at the UNESCO World Heritage site of Galleria Turelli in Tuscany, Italy. She has been shortlisted in 2022 and 2023 for the Wales Contemporary Prize & Exhibitions. In 2023-24 Riga is being funded by the ARTS COUNCIL ENGLAND to make a series of large landscapes of Britain.
