A Bunch of Grapes & Figs
‘A painting of affection and connection, or maybe just a bunch of grapes and figs dancing around some useless but happy vessels!
I started a movement known as The Unstill Life Movement, whose Manifesto is:
Unfortunately, I’m the only member so far – must work harder! I think COVID subconsciously played a bit of a part in how my work evolved. There is comfort in connectivity.’
Oil on canvas framed with a khaki green tray frame.
Size (including the frame): 72.5cm x 103cm.
Location: At the gallery in Wimbledon, London.

The gallery is small, but it punches well above its weight. Friendly, expert and hugely knowledgeable about the artists it represents and displays, there is always something of interest, at different price levels.
The Artist
Judith Fisher
"My work often starts with something I've seen, and sometimes something I think I've seen. Influenced always by my surroundings. Even though I may begin with a flower, a vessel and colours I've seen in a book or on a poster, or in the landscape that is where it ends. The next thing that happens is unexpected and is purely my imagination. So I think still life paintings should always be on the move... Thus my flying flowers, flat vessels with no front or back, colours that aren't flowers and shapes that aren't vessels and so on!
My work aims to have a playful and dynamic feel, making paintings that are instantly approachable.
I work primarily in oils on canvas and use palette knives to give texture.
I am a founder member of the Unstill Life Movement – well, the only member thus far!"
