Kayla Spence: Shifting Light, Silent Land
The Shifting Light, Silent Land exhibition by Kayla Spence at Six Foot Gallery explores the imposing landscapes around us that exist as a constant presence long beyond our own lifetimes.
About Kayla Spence: Shifting Light, Silent Land
Kayla is based in Aberdeen and graduated from Gray’s School of Art in 2024. She was a participant on Sky Arts 'Landscape Artist of The Year', an experience that gave her the confidence to produce this solo exhibition and has acted as an anchor for the development of her practice post-graduation. Using a restricted colour palette, primarily in oil and graphite, Kayla explores concepts of nation, solitude, and place through abstracted Scottish landscapes. This exhibition marks a significant moment in Kayla’s artistic journey as she challenges and reflects on her past practice.
“My work explores the tension between abstraction and representation within the landscape, with a particular focus on Scottish hillscapes. I’m drawn to their stillness, their weathered faces, and the quiet strength they hold. Through my paintings, I aim to reveal the delicacy and intimacy of these places, capturing not just how they appear, but how they feel.”
