Wallmatter 16 – 2016
Connections and contrasts of imperfections, found in the urban environment, highlighting, insignificant marks and weathered surfaces
I work primarily with abstract painting and often focus on layering paint and mixed media materials, creating incomplete impressions – random, yet imperfect. My process involves building up and breaking down surfaces, playing with decay and renew. In my textile and found object pieces I bring in texture and rust to give depth.
Landwrap 3 – 2023 The artworks link to the primal aerial view over Australia.
Land Wrap is my relationship with the earth. A subconscious rendering of the desolate wilderness, granite landscapes, deserts, forests, waterholes and walking tracks of Australia. Being a primal source of the earth , once one is cloaked in “Land Wrap” it gives protection and wisdom for our future survival.
At the core of my work remains the act of intuitive and experimental marks, smudges and scratches that reference my relationship with the environment and moments in History. I hope my works will ignite the imagination and evoke an honest and curious connection to the environment. Jenny Davis 2023
