Glimmers – Artwork by Caroline Martin
‘Glimmers’ is an original acrylic and mixed media artwork on plywood by East Sussex artist Caroline Martin. Available at KATA in Tunbridge Wells, this contemporary abstract piece reflects Caroline’s intuitive approach to colour, movement and layered mark-making.
Caroline’s practice is deeply influenced by water, sky, music and the natural world. Working from her home studio in East Sussex, she develops each piece organically, allowing the composition to evolve through layers of acrylic, mixed media and expressive marks. Colour and rhythm play an important role in her process, helping to shape the energy and flow of the work as it develops.
The title ‘Glimmers’ suggests fleeting moments of light, movement and discovery. This sense of something briefly revealed sits beautifully within Caroline’s wider practice, where abstraction allows the viewer to respond instinctively rather than being guided by a literal subject. Her work balances expressive energy with a calmer, more reflective quality, creating pieces that invite a slower and more personal response.
Created on plywood, ‘Glimmers’ measures 94.5 x 34.2cm. Its long, narrow proportions give the piece a distinctive presence and make it particularly well suited to spaces where a more horizontal artwork can be appreciated. It would sit beautifully above a console, sideboard, bed or along a hallway, bringing a sense of movement and contemporary character to the space.
Caroline Martin is known for creating one-off abstract artworks that combine colour, texture and expressive mark-making with an underlying sense of calm. Her layered process gives each piece depth and individuality, encouraging the viewer to notice new relationships within the composition over time.
‘Glimmers’ is a distinctive choice for collectors looking for original contemporary abstract art with an atmospheric quality and a strong sense of movement, light and texture.
