Caragh Thuring – Studio Visit | TateShots



‘How can you make something that is flat against the wall take up space?’ Artist Caragh Thuring talks about her new paintings and the representation of space in two dimensions.

Focusing on architectural elements or landmarks, Thuring’s paintings begin with extensive visual research – research which leads straight to paintings directly on to unprimed linen canvas. In this film she discusses where her inspiration comes from, how she knows when a painting is finished, and the ‘act of generosity’ it takes for a viewer to spend time with a painting.
