Tempo Rubato

Tempo Rubato

Margaret Ashman’s figures are studies in movement, balance and gesture. Rather than functioning as portraits, they capture the body in motion, giving each work a strong sense of rhythm and physical presence.

The restrained palette allows the figures to sit easily within contemporary interiors, while the brushed gold aluminium adds warmth and a subtle luminosity that changes with the light.

Each work is striking on its own, but the series is especially powerful when shown as a pair or triptych. At the larger sizes, the figures become almost life-size, creating a dramatic sequence across a wall without overwhelming the surrounding space.

Limited edition fine art print on brushed gold aluminium, presented in a solid wood ArtBox frame, (4mm brown alder). Total edition: 50
