Lindy Norton
“Clifford’s Shed” drypoint print by Lindy Norton
Lindy Norton’s work has a narrative that is often unsaid. One of her preoccupations is creating a sense of unease within her work, exploring atmospheric qualities, ambiguity with mystery, hinting at human presence or absence. Her aim is to subtly change the truth of light and darkness to amplify uncertainties.
“Mark’s Room” drypoint etching by Lindy Norton
“When first I walk into a darkened room, my eyes need to adjust; a short period of visual insecurity stimulates ideas: moments that much of my work relates to.” Lindy Norton
Lindy Norton has had several one man shows and exhibited in many mixed exhibitions including The Royal Academy Summer Show. Her work is held in many private collections.

“In special locations where there is no light pollution, I enjoy gazing up at the Milky Way, and letting my imagination go beyond Andromeda into the Celestial depths of our Multiverse.”
