New works – Bucolica

My work is to be included in a new exhibition at Edwina Corlette Gallery in Brisbane.

The series Bucolica draws on enlightenment era ideals of nature, the romance of Mughal miniature paintings of gardens, my own memories of my Oma’s apple tree and the colours of nostalgia.  I’ve been reading ‘Landscape and Memory’ by Simon Schama, and I was intrigued by the idea of humans shaping the landscape, not only physically, but through the perceptions that are shaped by our memories, cultures and ideals.

All the images can be seen here.

Inside Out Magazine

Brisbane-based gallery owner Edwina Corlette has kindly given me a mention in the current issue of Inside Out Magazine!

Also see my extended q & a with Lee Tram Lam of Inside Out Magazine on the Inside Out Blog, in which Lee discovers among other things my love of daggy wrapping paper.

I dreamed I saw…

The ‘I dreamed I saw’ blog has included me in a feature on papercutting – they have a really interesting selection, including a few I haven’t heard of before and like a lot. Visit the blog here
