ABOUT
​
Jurgi Moor is an abstract expressionism artist.
​
Born in Vilnius in 1984. She is based in Devon. Painting from her studio on the edge of Exmoor, in a little town called Bampton.
Often painting not what she sees but what she feels would best describe her work.
Her artwork is very expressive and full of energy. With sweeping and gestural brushstrokes and very emotive jags of lines combined with textural mark making.
​
Often working in groups with one after another paintings in quick succession and playing with composition.
Her abstract landscape inspiration comes from any intresting rugged aesthetics found in nature. Large rocks by the sea, tall grasses by lakes, rugged and windswept nature on Dartmoor and Exmoor.
Some of her inspiration comes from her childhood memories back in Vilnius.
As well as current relationships, feelings and daily life now.
She puts strong emphasis on mental health and power of expressing emotions on paper.
Some of her volunteering work includes work with Hospice Patients.
Art is a great communicator.
Jurgi welcomes visits to her studio. Please email to arrange : Jurgimoor@gmail.com
