BRYAN WYNTER

'Bryan Wynter' (September 8,1915 – February 2,1975) ^[1]was one of the St. Ives group of British painters. He studied at the Slade School of Fine Art, London and
settled in Zennor, Cornwall in 1945. His work was mainly abstract, drawing upon nature for inspiration.
Some of his most remarkable works are constructions which he titled IMOOS (Images Moving Out Onto Space). Using a parabolic mirror, he would hang contrasting pairs of painted shapes, which rotated freely. Their reversed reflections enlarged, appearing to move in opposite directions.
He was born September 8,1915 in London.
He died February 2,1975 at Penzance, Cornwall.
