Beth Shapeero

(b 1985United Kingdom. Lives and works in Glasgow)

Shapeero works with sumptuous colour combinations and compositions of form and line, drawn from her daily observations. She moves between media and creative processes and has recently developed a collaborative practice with Fraser Taylor, with whom she shares a very particular aesthetic.

“My practice sees me attempting to find coherence within overwhelming possibility. It’s anchored in reductive, minimal abstraction, which allows me to make without being too definitive. It allows space for wonder, contemplation and strangeness. Without the need to explicitly mean something, the work can be playful and purposeful within itself.”
