Anna Curston - Artist 

I am an abstract painter and space artist, working predominantly with acrylic paint on wood and canvas. My work is a celebration of my passions, bringing together the realms of astronomy and painting. It explores the scientific concepts of astronomy, along with my personal feelings towards the subject, while simultaneously being a vessel in which I can play and experiment with paint. The overarching themes that guide and govern my art practice are: Order and Chaos, Logic and Creativity, Curiosity and Playfulness. My work as whole is all about bridging the apparent gap between the two subjects and inspiring people to get excited about both, not only in their own rights but, together.

​

My process is one of research, reimagining and experimentation, combining my understanding of art and composition with research into astronomy, and then with the chaos of the paint I so dearly love to use.

​

My paintings are a place where I can be wholly myself and I can pursue both my passions at once. They are an environment free from judgement or fear where you can do and be absolutely anything; free from the boundaries of other people’s opinions and expectations.
