Phoebe Evans
Spaces of other that index the past, present and a future that never arrives, are reoccurring motifs
within Phoebes practice. Saturated monochromes are used to reimagine vivid dreamscapes, which
invite an audience to view space and time through a tinted lens. Collective memory and personal
experience triggers a yearning for nostalgia, times gone by and lost memories that haunt the now.
Everyday scenes of domesticity create a feeling of longing and a surreal sensation of odd familiarity
that we have been here before. Homes we have never entered, staircases we never climbed become
portals to the fading facade of both the artist’s and audience’s memory captured in a static moment
that stills the flux of change: the shadow between reality and fiction.
