Isolation Series
Isolation has become a portmanteau word for the period of time beginning with the Covid epidemic.
It encapsulates an intimacy promoted by unexpected enclosure and an expanded sense of space developed out of sharing this experience globally. Using materials I had to hand, scraps of paper and discarded prints, I began a series of works during lockdown that marked the character of the days. These small works have provided the basis for a series of larger works that map a sense of dislocation and distance, referring to the impact on both internal and external spaces.
These works exhibited in ‘Accretions / Abbrasions’, Grace Cossington Smith Gallery, Abbotsford, Sydney in July/August 2022 alongside the work of Anthea Boesenberg, Kathy Boyle and Gary Shinfield.
