Les Ramsay
1976 -
Drawing inspiration from domestic craft, textiles, folk art, and digital imagery, Les Ramsay’s work explores themes of memory, nostalgia, and the passage of time. His layered, multimedia compositions often feature large oil paintings, fabric assemblages, sculpture, and framed needlepoint, inviting viewers to contemplate the complex interplay between the familiar and the unfamiliar. Central to Ramsay’s practice is his innovative use of recycled everyday domestic objects, which he manipulates through both constructive and deconstructive techniques. He breathes new life into discarded materials, transforming them into thought-provoking works of art that challenge perceptions of beauty and utility.
