Works from Tom Voyce, Artist Residency in 2018, will be on Exhibition at The Artist's Room Fine Art Gallery, Dunedin, opening 14th March.
Tom Voyce was a Dunedin School of Art, Artist in Residence, in the painting department from 21 September – 19 October 2018.
Tom Voyce is a 28 year old artist and art teacher currently based in Burton on Trent in Staffordshire. Trained in Fine Art at Aberystwyth University in Wales, Tom gained his bachelor’s degree in 2011- specialising in drawing and painting. He completed a Master’s degree shortly afterwards allowing him to refine his practice while working and teaching at HE level. This also included a visit to China in 2014 where he taught life drawing.Tom is an artist whose work sits firmly within a vast art historical tradition. Heavily influenced by 20th Century American abstraction, his work treads a tightrope between figuration and abstraction and takes particular inspiration from the work of Richard Diebenkorn.
Tom has written about his work and time in Dunedin in Scope: Art and Design, #18.
