Daniel Bruce

Daniel Bruce is a painter working between figuration and abstraction. His paintings are constructed through fragmentation and reassembly, drawing on bodies, architectural forms, and symbols that are broken, rejoined, and held in unstable relation.

Figures and structures are treated interchangeably, often functioning as supports, mechanisms, or containers rather than fixed subjects. The work is developed through material processes that leave surface, revision, and erosion visible. Muted palettes and abrasive mark-making emphasise duration, pressure, and structural instability.
