Marion Taylor
I have enjoyed teaching at The School for over 25 years and this has always gone hand in hand with my own practice, as I find sharing ideas and techniques stimulating and rewarding. My approach is to give students the confidence to develop their skills, to think for themselves and so extend their visual language and find their own path.
Marion has lived and worked as an artist in Penwith for 30 years. Her practice over that time has included painting, drawing, printing, photopaintings, 3D installation and site-specific work. Her approach is conceptual and the imagery holds many contrasts and contradictions – dark / light, real / surreal, observed / imagined, representational / abstracted – and in this way questions ideas around these conventions.
.
Marion is a long term studio tenant at the prestigious Porthmeor Studios . She exhibits widely, most recently in her sell out solo show: ‘That’s How the Light Gets In’. he is a highly respected figure in West Cornwall’s Art scene. She was chair of Newlyn Society of Artists; part of the education programme at Newlyn and Exchange Galleries and has lectured and lecturer at University of Falmouth
See Marion’s website for more about her practice.
