About the artist:
Leaving school with just an A level in Art, Rehana Rose has forged a successful career as a creative in live events, designing and producing film and animation for multi-screen formats. Her background in graphic design lends itself well for her current series of paintings, where she has become slightly obsessed with the pavements in Brighton. Mixing the precision of geometry with the mayhem of erosion, Rehana enjoys recreating multi-paving patterns on large canvasses. From Brighton’s urban streets and stations to paving and remnants on Brighton seafront, Rehana works with acrylics and adds texture and sheen to the various layers dependent on the industrial materials she focusses on that we all walk on. Cropping her visual representations of paving to create highly geometric, multi-layered textures, Rehana scales up the images with good old-fashioned maths, set squares and pencil then paints with acrylics at her studio on the South Downs BN1, right on the edge of Brighton.
