Samantha draws inspiration from her surroundings. Living in the affectionately dubbed “Garden City” (aka Singapore), her work is her own abstract take on the buildings and the lush, tropical greenery of Singapore. Using a combination of gestural, impulsive movements, layering and detailed work, Samantha has a style that is all her own.

In the words of the artist...

“They’ve just sort of evolved. Maybe I can trace it back to college days… a big part of my A Level work was city photography. I love architecture and its effect on the psyche and I loved capturing it in images. But I hadn’t put it on canvas until now. Here, the jungle is always just being kept at bay and can creep in at any moment. I love that.

"I like exploring how the jungle is never far from the city, a character always creeping in. I haven’t populated my cityscape paintings with figures yet, but I already see humanity present in the structures. To me it’s been more about the clash and conversation between the wild jungle and the urban landscape.” ~ Samantha Redfern

Arty-Fact: “As a mum in the UK I rarely got the chance to do the things I enjoyed like painting, socialising etc. When we moved to Singapore that changed. Suddenly I could go out for 'ladies night' drinks or dinner on a rooftop bar with my husband. This is the city I love. The city that has allowed me to live my best life. I am a mum, I am a wife, I am a friend, I am an independent woman and I am an artist.” ~ Samantha Redfern
