Chloe Scorah- BA (Hons) Fine Art
Chloe Scorah’s work both adheres to and defies traditional understandings of portraiture and its role within contemporary art. She uses only herself as a reference, and paints in oil on canvas to communicate and contradict themes of self-perception, control and feminism. Her work pushes the critical theory of the male gaze to the side as the confronting eye-contact and stance, and eccentrically coloured impasto brushstrokes, enforce us to question… who is being watched?
