Expressing a passion for movement, Mars Woodhill’s art is visual energy, crystallized in paint. Contrasts of color, texture and opacity offer an intriguing complexity whether viewed close up or far away.
Inspired by natural phenomenon, Mars Woodhill’s paintings often showcase biological, geological and cartographic influences. A painting may appear to be the interior of a geological formation, a land or sea mass viewed from afar or perhaps an unleashed biological creation.
Through the artist’s technique utilizing the fluid dynamics of paint, the sensation of rapid motion or an effect of an explosion or implosion is formed. The impression of movement provides the common link between paintings.
Also, in 2011, Mars Woodhill begins an exploration of the theme ‘reinvention’ expressed both in her paintings and a series of sculptures formed from paint after it escaped the boundary limitations of the canvas.
