| Introduction | Teresa Duck is a contemporary British painter, living and working up in Newcastle upon Tyne in the North East of England. She Studied at Northumbria University where she gained a BA Honours in fine art. Teresa’s work combines formal realist painting with abstracted elements, exploring the idea of the microcosm as a structures of experience. Through this she uses visual allegory to fuse together hyperphysical human concepts such as emotion, scientific theory, philosophy and mortality with our relationship to those around us, and the tangible environment we occupy. Through arrangements of (an amalgamation of/ a melding of) anatomical elements, abstract forms and inanimate objects, Teresa explores the relationship between these subjects and our emotional experience of physical reality. By examining the human and animal bodies in the form of individual organs - both as physical objects in themselves as the form of meat, alongside the body itself as vehicle which our sense of self inhabits - Teresa questions the effects this has on our relationship with the physical world and our sense of individuality and identity.
