The square has provided Gwenyth a plane to explore and use as a means to depict her concerns about obstruction and intervention, which she believes in constantly active in her private life and in a greater social and geopolitical context. Her recent work is created with a system of criteria and boundaries to be observed while navigating the neutrality of the square format. Interventions and obstructions are imposed during the coverage of pigment, leaving borders and boundaries corroding. The notion of accumulation and dispersion are apparent. The illusionary space created through this process suggests the depiction of an existing condition. Conflict and collaboration become apparent within the abstractions. Line and colour are minimal, but it is the occurrence of accidents and collisions within the imposed system during the coverage of paint that produces a complexity and quiet dynamic. The process of blocking and masking greatly informs her methodology. Gwenyth paints in oils on linen and canvas to explore these notions of interruption and intervention. The process of folding into the linen and canvas brings a 3 dimensional element to her work, which enhances further the concept of intervention.
