James John Midwinter is multidisciplinary artist working in Cornwall, UK. His practice is both an exploration and a representation of his mindstate, driven by personal discoveries and lessons from therapy. His compositions reflect his continual search for balance, between vibrant, new-found emotion, and a sense of control and calm. Each piece is a response to small moments within his life, relationships and nature. Distilling them to their essence, they reconstruct something quietly visceral and moving, something disconnected from time.
“For a long period of my life I was very disconnected from my emotions, and who I wanted to be. Understanding and communicating how I’m feeling in the moment is often quite difficult for me, and only on later reflection can I piece together how I’ve been feeling. My art practice helps this process greatly.
