I love it when an Artist is not afraid to use a vibrant colour palette when colour can be such an amazing tool. The vibrancy of these works make them stand out, changing the perception of how big a small room changes to or vice versa. The ability to affect the on lookers mood is a skill not many artist’s have.
My truely favourite pieces are ‘Stack Up’, paper, glue, pigment and shelf, and ‘Line-Up’, paper, glue, pigment and shelf, both works give off this air of contentment as if to say, we are fragile but we are happy. ‘Big Pink Circle’, hand cut felt, interfacing and glue is a very attractive hot pink circle and as I am attracted to bright objects and hot pink circles, not sure why but they seem to make me happy and I think that’s important.
It’s the last day of this show and I must get this post up and if your in Sydney then pop over to Potts Point and see this hot pop show.
