Banksia's and Gatorade, mixed media, original artworl, 2023
"Banksias + Gatorade" 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 drawing with pastel and posca pen. The vase in this piece was created by applying ink to a squashed Gatorade bottle that I printed and then added colour to.
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 !
The piece 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 framed series in my studio.
If you would like to view the work contact me to arrange a visit to my Marrickville studio.
