Lot Essay

‘Today I am interested in relating form and colour to create pictorial space which is as powerful as actual space sensation. Not the single-viewpoint space of perspective, or a multi-focal space, but a free space, the space we move about in, localised space. I consider the discipline of structure of first importance, but the making of this space is equally dependant on the freedom and vitality of the painter’s action intuitively controlled. In this way, I combine a sense of disciplined growth with the free discoveries made in the actual process of painting’ (T. Frost, quoted in C. Stephens, Terry Frost, London, 2000, p. 46).
