CEZARY STULGIS
of Maleny with Animal Within 1m x 1.5m Materials: Acrylic on canvas
The body of work builds upon his previous studies of the animal form in which he used dogs as a metaphor for human behaviour. He regularly revisits this cultural marginalisation of animals and tries to question similarities between human and animal behavior – almost a human nostalgia for the wild.
REX BACKHAUS-SMITH
of Montville with Rear Vision 112cm – 150cm Acrylic on canvas
Rex has always been intrigued by what he sees in a car’s rear vision mirror. This painting was conceived in outback western Queensland. It replicates old strips of colour film which repeat the theme of the subtle image changes seen in the rear vision mirror.
KEVIN OXLEY
of Montville with Life Fractals. 125cm x 150cm Collaged digital images. Acrylic paint and UV coating on stretched canvas
This artwork is a summary of the past four years dealing with holding an incurable cancer at bay .The image is constructed from collaged fractal images of my wife, children and grandchildren. It also includes images from past artworks on the theme of “survival” and repeated typographic patterns of names of pain-controlling drugs. Together they form a metaphoric suit of armour shielding my “warrior within”.
