Paper Knots
15 February - 15 March 2014
This piece is an exercise in expanding painting from a 2-dimensional expression to a deeper planar experience. Using high contrast, high-vis colours that "pop" to make the painting more visually active in its contrast with the space around it.
Looking at this painting one might consider the work of American painter Frank Stella, however for Julia these echoes of 20th century abstraction are less important than her personal quest in understanding painting, taking the angles and planar relationships of abstraction and rendering them "physically" to understand how form fills space. Only through making, can it then be painting with a knowing.
Hi there,
ReplyDeleteI am really interested in finding out how you exhibit in the gallery space , I have tried emailing but it keeps bouncing back saying you're mailbox is full. Is there a submissions process ? Have you already got a full program for 2014 ?
Thanks
Laura
