descript

A new body of work created over five years.

 

The artworks are a combination of

vintage texts, oil paintings and community stories told in oil paint, ink, and braille.

​

All the oil paintings have been completed

within a window of 3.5 hours. 

Often imperfect, often unfinished,

they are a celebration of the

art technique 'alla prima'.

 

Displayed with accessibility in mind, the artworks are complimented by two installations designed to inspire visitor interaction and discussion.
