Space Is Never Empty 1990s - 2007

My art career spans five decades, and builds on my lifelong interest in

meditation, philosophy, and feminism as conduits of freedom and peace.

This book provides a survey of my work between the 1990s to the 2000s,

created in both Melbourne and Perth. It is the second of a series of books

that documents the progression of my art practice.

These images of paintings show that I have continued to work towards a

non-representational practice. They show an interest in geometric shapes

and a continuance of: textural colour fields, minimalist expression and

composition, and group installations. These are indicative of my increasing

interest in the materiality of space, both inside and outside of the works.

My overarching experience is that space is never empty, both within each

artwork and in the surrounding environment. I aim to manifest works that are

supportive of nuance and mindful attentiveness, and that create a moment of

counterpoint to the ubiquitous, anxious, complexity of information overload.
