Cornish artist Juliette Paull masterfully blends abstraction and figuration in her evocative compositions, marked by subtle, gestural brushwork. Her art, inspired by Romanticism and explorations of the sublime in the 18th century, engages in a personal dialogue with the historical aesthetic and dramatic landscape of her West Cornwall home. This piece draws upon the continental philosophy of Jouissance, which deals with the transgression of a subject’s regulation of pleasure, and resonates with The Lawrence’s nautical theme honouring World War I Naval Officers.
