Moss Fuller
Moss Fuller was born in Suffolk, studied at St Martin’s School of Art, London and the Royal College of Art where she did a postgraduate in Printmaking. Her work has always been closely involved with the landscape, depicting its changing colour through the seasons, the weather, farming and farm machinery. In the last twelve years she has explored the possibilities of Land Art by introducing unexpected structures into the landscape using colour, high tech and natural materials. The pieces of work are developed over time, are influenced by the weather, and have a beginning and an end. Painting in the landscape has always been the thread running through the artist’s other activities and interests.
