HAZEL EVANS ~ VISUAL ARTIST

British Artist Hazel Evans became the inaugural Visual Artist in residence at Lighthouse, the largest arts centre outside of London situated in Poole Dorset, in 2010, where she has been developing her practice through observation and influence of the performing arts.

Recently artist Hazel Evans has been producing a collection of dynamic black and white works that energetically communicate her fantastical style of art. She has been working closely with the Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra (BSO) and has developed a particular affinity for music and dance as a source of inspiration for her art. Recent works have been exploring the connection of music and performance to visual and live art, with current themes including, surrealism, fantasy, book art, stories and travel

Hazel Evans' latest exhibition is an enchanting monochronic monochrome event, The Monochronium. Entering into the realms of blending times and spaces, Hazel's new live art exhibition is an exploration of words, music and illustration. The exhibition includes a 36hour Artathon with live music and artist collaborations.
