Born in 1956, Bren first came to Penwith in the 1960s. She has a BA (hons) degree in Fine Art and is currently studying for a Masters (by research). She is an active member of the Cape Cornwall Coastwatch team and also a member of the Newlyn Society of Artists and the Penwith Society of Art.

“My work is a representation of place. Through the medium of printmaking, I am seeking an equivalence between the landscape and its image. Of particular interest is the temporal, layered nature of the landscape and how this process of landscape formation is reflected by the layering process within the work.

“The work is underpinned by an essentially phenomenological approach, an approach which is then meditated through observation and repeated/layered description.

“The spatial diffusion of change gives a temporal account of place over time. Changing patterns are imposed on the landscape. Time relations as well as space relations bring about a continuous process of dissolution and replacement. The rhythmic nature of human activity resonates with other living things and also with the cycles of seasons, winds and tides.”
