A conversation with Amy Dury, an English figurative artist currently practicing in Brighton, England. Dury’s art education was detoured in her youth, but through a series of adventures Dury graduated from her preferred Glasgow School of Art with a degree in printmaking. Like many artists, Dury’s art career was suspended by the responsibilities of parenthood and sourcing a stable income, but when Dury saw the opportunity to teach painting at Varndean College in Brighton, England - she reignited her practice with extreme focus. Dury’s foundation in printmaking can be seen in her work as her paintings are rendered with defined blocks, experimental textures, and an overall graphic quality. Dury’s focus on historical photography has spurred her to explore archival video - snapshotting the frames she finds most interesting - straddling the line between photographer and time traveler.
