Original artwork by Chloë Holt RCA FRSA. One of the youngest artists ever to be elected a member of the RCA. Winner of the 2012 Kyffin Williams Drawing Prize, Chloe also, in 2010 won the International Lorenzo il Magnifico prize by the Florence Biennale for works on paper.
Created en plein air within the garden, Ceres captures the shifting atmosphere of autumn as light moves across the perennial border in fleeting intervals. Executed in graphite and conté pastel on Arches watercolour paper, the work embraces a gestural and impressionistic language, allowing forms to emerge through movement, energy and suggestion rather than fixed definition.
Fennel fronds, Helenium ‘Moerheim Beauty’ and Echinops thistle rise and dissolve through sweeping marks and softened passages, reflecting both the vitality of growth and the quiet dissolution carried by the season. The surface moves between delicacy and force, balancing moments of stillness with vigorous linear rhythm.
Rather than documenting the garden botanically, the work seeks to hold something more transient — the sensation of light, weather, growth and time passing through living forms. Ceres becomes not simply an observation of plants, but a meditation on seasonal change, energy and the instability of beauty itself.
