Click on any photo to the left to see a larger image of her work LYNNE RIDING A large section of the work included in this show came as a result of time spent in New Mexico during this past spring - summer of 2007. Although my work is of an abstract nature, it always stems from the place and surroundings, in which I find myself. From color observed, a line seen in space, or the found object. My interests lie in the subtle undercurrents, the not so blatant, crude or obvious. “Paying attention to what happens between the obvious - an inquiry concerning transparency.” My work is ongoing and is concerned with impermanence, human frailty - the ephemeral nature of what we call reality, aligned with the dichotomy of enduring hope, that, which drives humankind on....I believe that there is a validity or need for the poetic, in today's world, and through my work I am concerned with current tensions, aligned with notions of history, erosion and evidence of use, all of which intrigue me. I continue to develop the reductive painting process that I have started, involving what to bury and what to reveal. An exploration of ambiguity and embodiment, occurring through the pictorial contemplation of place and or emotion. In 2006, Lynne Riding’s work was included in the six month exhibit, “30th Parallel - a Convergence of Contemporary Painting“ at JMOMA, Jacksonville, FL. Since 1998 she has been teaching at the College of Charleston, SC, where she currently lives and works.
