Tara Leaver is a British artist whose abstract landscape paintings evoke the sensory experiences of immersing in the natural landscape of her home on the coast of Cornwall. She is happiest near – or preferably in – the sea, where she swims as often as she can. Leaver immerses herself in the multi-sensory experience of it, taking photos underwater, looking and feeling into the abundance of life above and below the waves. Back in the studio, Leaver weaves together elements from the photos, memories, and gathered seaweed, to distil those experiences into paintings.
