My new series of works reimagine places of emotional comfort as visual keepsakes. Paintings inspired by my life growing up on the Gold Coast as well as a mash-up of part-remembered and discovered imagery absorbed whilst on holidays. They explore my local environment and the beach lifestyle encapsulating it.…spaces full of aqua waterways, pink skies, tropical gardens, local beasties, and beachside homes.
My canvases explore my hopes and dreams, set within part imagined living spaces, yards and vistas shrouded in deep shades of green, dense lush foliage, contrasting bright skies, and now less than shy creatures within an often tranquil setting.
The imagery is purposely visually skewed, a perspective at multiple points, in an effort to direct the viewers gaze around these spaces rather than create a single point of visualisation, an encouragement to explore and embrace.
Like many, during the initial pandemic, I had felt the need to re-evaluate the notion of what “home” is, and what “living” within that environment entails. For a long time prior our house had been just a place to inhabit, a place to work. It then unceremoniously morphed into a secluded, socially excluded, bolt-hole tucked away from viral stresses, contact concerns, and other external worldly woes.
This new series of works looks to a mindset that initially sought process of idealising reimagined rooms as places of emotional comfort, then followed on with a process of venturing onwards from that pandemic driven cloistered view of internalised space and onwards to an eventual re-exploration of the environment encapsulating it.… the Garden, the Patio, the Creatures within, and a clearer re-evaluation of Home, from inside and from outside in.
