FROM CALIFORNIA WITH LOVE
We joined Los Angeles-based multidisciplinary artist Roger Herman at his residence and studio space ahead of his new London exhibition featuring latest body of work including ceramics and large-scale canvases, delving into the evolution of Herman's painterly approach to his practice across multiple mediums.
The works are characterised by their experimental use of colour, texture, material, process and form, all central aspects of the artist’s work to date. Herman's evolution from painting to ceramics is marked by his fascination with how colour changes during the glazing process, a theme he has been exploring since the late 1990s.
The exhibition showcases fifteen of Herman's latest large, hand-crafted ceramics, each a testament to his innovative and exploratory style. The ceramics are accompanied by a selection of six large-scale paintings. Much like the ceramics, the painting process embraces unpredictability, with the final hues of each work revealing themselves unexpectedly.
This interplay between various mediums highlights Herman's instinctive artistic method, where his distinctive palette-developed through experimental work with clay, glazes and kilns-manifests in both colour and form.
