Moyra Derby takes a component based approach to painting systems and structures. Wall and floor works are generated through a shared set of ratios and compositional strategies. Their status as paintings is often interchangeable with their potential as shelves, screens or storage, or their readability as a number system or mathematical diagrams. Often made in direct conversation with historical sources as part of a process of negotiating the work’s categorisation as paintings and understanding their function as cultural artefacts.
