In 2020 Hayley Theyers, Kate Rampling and myself decided to work on a collective project inspired by the life and work of Ithell Colquhoun.
I first came across Colquhoun while exploring the life of my Grandfather Robert MacGregor-Reid and his part in leading the Druid Order of which Ithell was an active member and friend of Robert. I was immediately struck by what an interesting, intelligent and spiritually commited person she was. Her body of work is so expansive that you can delve into any part of it and come out with inspiration, but I was most captivated by her series of hermetic colour theory paintings expressed as a tarot deck.
Tarot decks are traditionally figurative and loaded with symbolism, but Ithells paintings are purely created from swirling colour and form. I wanted to see if I could take Ithell’s sublime colour, retain it’s simplicity and power, while overlaying it on my own figurative practice.
