英国艺术家兼学者Tabitha Millett开发了一种独特的形式和材料的视觉语言。她的戏剧抽象作品探索了代理，简单，对比，运动和纹理的物质时刻，并受到极简主义，野兽派设计，建筑和包豪斯方面的影响；她的目标是通过“做得更少”来达到深度和强度。
British artist and academic Tabitha Millett has developed a unique visual language of form and materials. Her dramatic abstract work explores material moments of agency, simplicity, contrast, movement and texture, and draws influences from minimalism, brutalist design, architecture and aspects of Bauhaus; she aims for depth and intensity through ‘doing less’.
Tabitha是一个天生的完美主义者，这种个性特征反映在她作品的清晰度、锐利的线条和内在的平衡上。她是一个极简主义者，喜欢把自己的生活、财产和艺术品整理得井井有条、精确无误，在这种秩序中产生美感、口才和严谨的表现力。
Tabitha is a perfectionist by nature, a personality trait which is reflected
in the clarity, sharp lines and inherent balance of her work. Minimalist to the core, she prefers to keep her life, her possessions and her art organised and precise, and from this order emerges beauty, eloquence and an expressive rigour.
每件作品都采用独特的手工调色，Tabitha将其与大理石粉尘或石灰石碎片等多种介质混合在一起；颜料具有厚实的质感，在某些情况下还能获得高光泽效果。这些闪烁的、强烈的色彩与她使用的密集的哑光黑色形成鲜明对比，这种黑色经过特殊配制，能最大限度地吸收光线，并创造出一种空白空间的错觉。
Each piece is executed in a distinctive palette of hand-mixed colours, which Tabitha blends with a range of mediums such as marble dust or limestone fragments; this gives the paint a thick texture and, in some cases, a high gloss finish. These shimmering, intense colours contrast with her signature use of a dense, matte black, which is specially formulated to absorb the maximum possible amount of light and can create the illusion of a void space.
