Mandy Munroe’s images, although abstract, bring to mind the grittiness of an urban landscape. Bold geometric shapes dominate her canvas the way architecture defines a city. Rectangles are erected like looming skyscrapers and busy factories. Thick curved lines swoop like overpasses, creating movement as they drive the viewer’s eyes across the works. This industrial look is further echoed in Munroe’s stark color palette. Blacks and grays control the works, with browns, tans, and dirty blues acting as accents. The subdued colors are mainly solid or slightly mottled, similar to the metal and concrete that make up a city. Although the interplay of shapes and colors suggests a familiar setting, there is nothing definitive in the subject matter of these artworks. The shapes crisscross the canvas, dissecting the space itself into abstract shapes for the viewer to interpret.
Mandy Munroe's works have been exhibited in Britain, Europe and the USA.
