"Conversations with Friends", Original mixed media artwork 2023, framed.
"Conversations with Friends " is part of my Interior Motives series, which was shown at the Corner Gallery, Stanmore in April 2024.
This playful piece has been made by combining stamping, collage of my original prints and images from vintage magazines and drawing with pastel.
The title of this series reflects my drive to create work as much for myself as my audience. These pieces celebrate the therapeutic effects of embracing colour and pattern. In a year of great trauma, I have created my own alternate reality !
This piece is losely based on the front room of our workers cottage in inner west Sydney.
The work is created on heavyweight black Canson paper and is professionally framed by Frameart in Stanmore, Sydney. I have included a process photo and a photo of the group of works (from the series) currently in the studio.
If you would like to view the work, contact me to arrange a visit to my Marrickville studio.
