OPENING CELEBRATION Friday October 18 @ 6.00pm
To be officially opened by Patsy Payne
Terri Brooks
I enjoy walking and use this time to source inspiration for my abstract sculptural paintings and paper mache pieces which glean their essence from the city’s weathered and arbitrarily juxtaposed utilitarian and architectural surfaces.
Katherine Boland
In her series Ad Infinitum Katherine has used repetition as a key element. Marks burnt and gouged into timber panels enter and disappear from each side of the painting evoking a sense beginning-less time.
William Ferguson
My canvases and works on paper made since the sixties have been concerned with a personal interest in the Australian Aboriginals, their life, culture and the desert in which they live. Painting for me celebrates the mysterious, the Australian landscape and culture, providing a spiritual stimuli within which I am concerned – interpreting values in subjective expressions – the inner life or spirit, rather than describing facts. In my work I wish to project a profound aura of silence, optimism, surprise, joy, and above all deep love reflecting the mystery and spiritual resonances linked with my personal interaction with the Aboriginals and their land.
Sylvia McEwan
Drawing on references as diverse as Classicism and Cubism, my work shifts between the figurative and the abstract. Although it evolves from the representational and moves through to the abstract, the paintings retain the influences and inspirations from which they were conceived. Whilst the subject matter is important, the true subject of the painting is always; space, colour, form, structure and balance.
My approach is to keep the subject matter and the paint as loose as possible.
Joanne Searle
Landscape and place are at the core of my practice and an integral part of my practice is to undertake field trips. It became apparent to me when I returned to sites, that I am preoccupied with changes that take place on the skin or surface of the landscape. Sound, and its two dimensional representation, have become an increasing theme of my practice. This work investigates the possibility that sound can resonate ‘place’ and that it is possible to reconstruct an experience of this, using a representation of sound that is two-dimensional.
We would be delighted if you could join us at the opening. If you would like an online preview of the work in this exhibition please follow the link www.formstudioandgallery.com.au
