Stephen Ormandy
Polychromatism

Stephen Ormandy’s paintings and sculptures are inspired by the natural world. The foundation of his painting is a strong design element together with a great understanding of the nuance and potential of colour and form. He works with solid colour and soft organic shapes which bounce off each other, creating an enduring vibrancy. This exhibition Polychromatism shows Ormandy’s exploration of chroma relationships between his sculptural forms and his paintings. There is a clear dialogue between the different surfaces and shapes and it is evident that one informs the other in constant play. The works offer a wonderful sense of joie de vivre.
