Biography:
James Hugonin was born in Barnard Castle, County Durham in 1950. He studied at Winchester School of Art, West Surrey College of Art and Design and Chelsea School of Art.
In his work, he explores the movement of light across a space, and its constant rhythmic change. His work is easily identifiable given the grid structure which he imposes over many of his paintings, which he claims, paradoxically, frees him from the constraints of painting.
He has had a series of solo shows but has also been part of several group exhibitions across the UK. Hugonin lives and works in Northumberland, in a studio of his own design.
