Robert Hart DAE, M Ed
The Arts have affinities with Science and Philosophy in that artists also explore the environment, experiences, and ideas. I am not so much interested in representation as in trying to illuminate the essence of a subject or idea. l enjoy colour and form for their own sakes. Sometimes they alone can produce exciting, or disturbing images, which may penetrate below the level of consciousness. The medium changes the outcome so I work with various materials, trying always to find the most appropriate, economic, and aesthetically satisfactory means of conveying my intention. Exhibitions: My work has been shown at various open exhibitions, and also by invitation at The White Room Gallery, Harlech, Wales, and The Old Hall Gallery, Cowbridge, Wales. I exhibit in VOGA exhibitions which included Rheinfelden and Fécampin 2005. I exhibit with the South Wales Art Society and in 1998 was awarded their Portrait Prize, and the President's Choice Prize. 2006, VOGA 'Beyond the Vale' Newport Museum and Art Gallery and Llanover Hall Arts Centre, Cardiff. 2007 VOGA Tenth Anniversary Exhibition, St David's Hall, Cardiff.
