On 12 November 2013 the graduating students’ exhibition for the Diploma of Visual Arts at Southbank Institute of Technology, Brisbane, Queensland will open and will run for five days.
As depicted in this image, my work for this exhibition is based on multi-plate etchings incorporating zinc plate and drypoint with chine colle using fibrous Japanese paper. I have then hand coloured with watercolour and added some graphite pencil drawing. The works are landscapes inspired by the rockpools found at the ocean’s edge. The superimposition of images in a layered approach gives the idea of a sketchbook and to an extent references the approach of John Wolseley to some of his landscape works.
The exhibition will show varied works by students who are completing the two year Diploma including installations and works on paper and canvas involving painting, drawing, ceramics, sculpture, and printmaking. More information about the artists can be found at http://zenith150.wordpress.com/.
