About The Artwork
In making this aerial landscape painting, new lines of discovery were revealed; borders and boundaries between fields, reservoirs, forgotten spaces and ancient stone structures — all marking territories and land that humans have claimed over time. Influenced by the large abstract paintings of Richard Diebenkorn, which I absorbed while living in California and the raw wilderness of West Cornwall where I now live, this painting is also rooted in today's political landscape - a time in which walls have been, or will be, built to keep us separate: Israelis from Palestinians, Americans from Mexicans - and soon, it would seem, Britons from Europeans. The title of this painting is taken from the poem Mending Wall by Robert Frost. Its commentary on the follies of human nature and the doomed nature of segregation and our persistence in doing it anyway, has stayed with me since discovering the poem at age 13.

Joyful and uplifting, Trudy Montgomery's vibrant, abstract paintings portray a fresh aesthetic and a contemporary view of our relationship with the land and our origin of belonging. Her tendency towards pure, bold color, often on an immersive scale, is influenced by the light and space of California where she lived for 14 years. Drawing inspiration from her travels, both inner and outer, Trudy's work can be seen as inner landscapes or 'dreamscapes' depicting the unseen. Georgia O'Keefe said, "the abstract is often the purest form for me to express the inexpressible." For Trudy, this holds true. Working from a meditative state of action, Trudy uses the expressive possibilities of paint to convey what is, so often, inaccessible via words.
