About the Artwork
Over the past few years, my landscapes have been largely focused on my local suburbs of Brunswick and Coburg in inner-city Melbourne. These old industrial suburbs are the places where I have spent the vast majority of my life. While not always the most beautiful or picturesque, these are the locations that have the most emotional resonance for me. With Leaving, I am using the landscape to reflect on my own life in the area, and how my experiences of happiness and loss are tied so closely with that sense of place.
