“On the symmetry of her psyche, and some other works”

Introducing a collection of works in the same format, all being 60 cms by 90cms, on plywood, painted in oil and varnished, a major theme and a few others but basically of different individual models with different compositions, presented as the same theme, “models “.

That vary in colour and schematic placement, moving from a consumerism and accessibility of models to an interpreted aesthetics , an artistic observation. The models are themselves painted realistically, are cued with varying colours and backgrounds and background Inclusions, a series all of beauty and aesthetics, and maybe a narrative involved in the story , the story included within the paintings , i.e. and we ask, Where is the model ? Or what is she doing? Changing in an inspiring way of human frailty and delicacy, to be appreciated again, the scene of and story of them, leaving the viewer perhaps with a glimpse of beauty. Seen through the eyes of an artist, a glimpse of female human aesthetics, of consumerism and the model and the industry/ market, where the model has been appraised and rehumanised, and her aesthetics are looked at, valued ,to be appreciated. Hope, to the barrenness of lifelessness , of ourselves , which we ask, And is beauty as humorous as it is rare? As we appreciate here, the examples of aesthetics .

The others here in the exhibition are paintings of the 2020 Bushfires, the movement of the flames, of bushfires early this year, and some Redly Caped Extinction Rebels /Activists and a landscape and another miscellaneous, mysterious work of a strange characteress indeed.

A fastly completed body of work, done during the Covid 19 crises of 2020 during social restriction and social distancing and even lockdown, showing some angst and anguish from us all during the time.
