David Hardy is an artist based in West Wales, creating artworks from the foothills of the Cambrian Mountains. Hardy takes inspiration from the natural world, responding to a place or an experience. Often referencing the landscape, found forms and photography as starting points. Hardy is a former graphic designer and his keen eye for composition, and form is reflected in his abstract pieces. By using a reduced palette he creates work that focuses on depth, tone & texture without the distraction of colour.
Through the absence of narrative elements, the monochromatic works invite the viewer to a meditative contemplation and have an emotional depth to them that provokes a feeling of grounding and connection.
