JULIE DAVIDSON – SMALL THINGS IN SILENCE
Artist:
Julie Davidson
Location:
subiaco
12 - 29 NOVEMBER, SUBIACO. Official Opening 2-4pm Saturday 17 November.
"My aim, over past exhibitions, has been to pursue different ways of expressing the beauty and dignity of ‘small things’ and to use visual metaphors around the fragility and the transient nature of life. I have spent years referencing Renaissance art, particularly the altarpiece and use of drapery and dramatic light. More recently I have enjoyed delving into the ancient traditions of Chinese paintings and the Japanese principle of wabi sabi. The result is an aesthetic and conceptual interplay between these two seemingly disparate sets of subject matter – finding grace in both the epic and the everyday." Julie Davidson, October 2018
