About Gera Dunachie

I'm an abstract painter working on cradled wood panels. My work begins in sensation, not sight. I have aphantasia, which means I can't visualise, so each painting builds through tone, pressure and structural instinct rather than any pre-formed image. Synaesthesia gives me my first colour cue, a felt response to language that becomes the opening move on the panel. From there the surface builds in layers, added, removed and redirected. Even what disappears tends to leave a trace.

I offer work across formats and scales, from smaller, more immediate pieces to larger, more resolved paintings. Each carries the same focus on tension, structure and surface, giving collectors a clear way into the work at different levels.
