Collection of CANDICE TRIPP - Liminal Gallery in a gallery layout

CANDICE TRIPP

Candice Tripp is a South African born artist living in the North East of England. 

At 21 her darkly humorous paintings caught the eye of a local gallery who provided the platform for her first solo show. At 22 her work was being exhibited in LA. 

Child-like subjects pluck at adult themes in paintings and sculptures whose narrative provides all the answers one could expect to find on a single page torn from a picture book. 

Occasionally playful, often sardonic, she levels her aim at the modern human experience through a lens inspired by her deep love for horror, folk art and story-telling. 

As a self taught painter, her ever-evolving practice now extends to include etching, sculpture, installation, and in recent years, wax carving for her jewellery line, which she produces from her studio in Newcastle upon Tyne. 

She has had solo shows in London and New York, provided the award-winning artwork for Arrow Video's release of Donnie Darko, and exhibited in the first inaugural Bangkok Art Biennale in 2018.
