Edmond Brooks-Beckman : Into the clamour of words

Duarte Sequeira is pleased to announce the first solo presentation of British artist Edmond Brooks-Beckman in Seoul. The exhibition introduces a new series of palimpsests paintings, revealing the artist's application, carving, and cutting technique while capturing the delicate balance between creation and erasure. Through layers of thick oil paint and symbolism woven into his evolving visual language, Brooks-Beckman explores family history, personal experiences, and contemporary consciousness.

Edmond Brooks-Beckman was born in 1987 in London, where he lives and works. He holds an MA in Painting from The Royal College of Art (2021-2023). His graduation show work 'Inscriptions beneath the skin, 2023' won the coveted Valerie Beston Prize. He has a BFA from Brighton University (2006-2009). Brooks-Beckman has integrated his studio and lecturing practice. After completing a PGCE at the IOE in 2016, the artist worked within secondary education as an Art and Design teacher he progressed on to foundation course leader at the Hampstead School of Art until 2023.
