About the designer: Victor Pasmore
Victor Pasmore began to truly garner international fame as an abstract artist particularly through his participation in the Venice Biennale of 1960. This also set the scene for a chance encounter with Malta. Following the acquisition and adaptation of a farmhouse in Gudja in 1966, he was later to permanently live there together with his wife, Wendy, and their two children.
During his stay in Malta, Pasmore established several close friendships with Maltese artists and intellectuals, and continued to actively search for new relationships in form, colour, space and meaning, up until his death in 1998. The result was an extremely prolific and influential career, replete with hundreds of creations which respond to Pasmore’s unwavering belief that each piece is indeed a unique and autonomous object – a new discovery.
