Archie Boon

Archie Boon is a painter whose work explores the rhythms and elemental energy of the natural world. Raised in Saffron Walden, the bucolic landscape of his childhood continues to shape his practice. Moving to London to study Fine Art Painting at Camberwell College of Arts, he abstracts the natural landscape through muted colour palettes and dynamic full-body brushstrokes.

His series Windmill Hill brings together twelve paintings of Saffron Walden, capturing the changing seasons through intuitive splatters and gestural mark-making. His canvases evoke the dormant energy of winter vegetation, later celebrating the bursts of colour and vitality that come with spring. Balancing figuration and abstraction, Boon’s work is a rigorous exercise in capturing both the consistency and chaos of nature’s rhythms.
