Upcoming show in July at Off The Kerb Gallery
The Way We Looked At Each Other examines the poetics of Australian sporting, political and cultural iconography and landscape, considered through the nostalgic impetus to return to what is ‘homely’ and how memory can change over time, creating shifting narrative and truth.
Utilising pencil, graphite and watercolour, all which require fine attention and patience, works are finished in glass resin, giving inert artworks new form and understated movement in light and reflection as the viewer moves.
The smaller works offer a departure from previously large scale works that had contemplated a narrative somewhere ‘out there’; elsewhere, instead (as isolation has done for most of us) articulating space and sense of place in the intimate.
